The jacksfilms Machine is finally here! jacksfilms is one of my very favorite YouTubers, so I thought it would be perfect to make a machine as a tribute for him. All in all, I think this machine is one of my best (if not the best), but I know for a fact it is the most complicated.

I actually managed to include TWO quadruple use elements (the K'nex box with the tracks and the sliding track). Not only did I include them, but they also run in parallel with each other, as the sliding track lines up with a track in the K'nex structure twice.
The hardest part of this machine was actually the stylus at the very end. Turns out, you actually need to supply an electrical current to the stylus to make it work. That is why there is a wire sticking out the top! Even with this, the trick was still extremely unreliable. On two occasions, the machine actually made it all the way to the end, working perfectly except for the stylus. So be warned, if you want to make a machine that presses a button on an iPad or iPhone, you might want to reconsider. :)

![Two Small Machine Ideas #1 [FAILS]
These are the fails from the machines in my last video. Watch the original video first, or dont, I dont know how you like to live your life... Just be sure to watch both videos. Two Small Machine Ideas #1 [FAILS]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ojf8HY_XcLg/mqdefault.jpg)
![The Longest Pong Shot Ever (w/berlagawesome)
For the majority of last month, I have been collaborating with berlagawesome. I have looked up to berlagawesome for a long time and I am so excited I finally got to do an awesome project with him!
The theme for this screenlink is that each and every clip enters and exits with the same ping pong ball! In fact, the video was originally going to be called Journey of a White Ping Pong Ball. You kind of have to watch this video twice: once to watch the awesome machines, and once to watch the white ping pong ball through every clip! Making this screenlink was a challenge because of this, but it wasnt nearly as hard as I originally thought.
This screenlink is actually berlagawesomes prize for winning my contest back in March. Unfortunately, I dont really think I was able to hold my own against berlagawesome, and I think he dominates the whole screenlink. Either way, I think it looks cool and I had a fun time!
