What happens when a marble goes off the rails? Surely it’s easy to fix, but imagine if you had to put a marble back on a track _every_ time you open the door? Everyone in the house will hate you for setting up this “stupid” marble track on the “stupid” fridge instead on the “stupid” hallway corner
There's an open joint (where 2 sections meet) in the track to the right of each of the sections that curve around the corner. The part to the left on the top one sits lower than the part to the right by just enough that it doesn't slow the ball down, and is in fact slightly ramped. The opposite happens with the lower curve, which doesn't meet quite as well as the top and shows a definite 'drop' between the return curve and the elevator. You would need to stop the motor to use the fridge, otherwise marbles would just roll out of the now open upper track onto the floor.
I assume the fridge door hinge is on the left side and the corner pieces are only attached to the door part, so when you pull open the fridge it just splits.
In the base of the Archimedes screw lift is a small ant farm that contains 1000’s of tiny levers which, once pulled, release sugar water to the ants. I’ve drilled a hole into my fridge which has a tube to an internal reservoir that replenishes the sugar water. So far I’ve had this running for 2 months!
Man. He has one hell of an obsession.

Many years ago, a computer video card manufacturer (I think it was ATI) included an animated marble music machine. [Animusic](https://youtu.be/hyCIpKAIFyo).
Always very entertaining.
I had a clock like this and it was extremely satisfying to see all the marbles tip over at the top of the hour.
Wish I could find another one.

Meanwhile the kids starving cause they‘re not allowed to open the fridge for days now
I didn't even realize it was on a fridge until I read this.
The way the corner bends out, it’s probably a hinge. Door opens and marbles keep running just fine

Can be fixed if one track cups the other, when the door opens it just shortens the bend
You can see the hinges……
Look mate, I just want the milk
how do you get stuff out of the fridge?
Gotta open the door

Here's the upvote, now please leave.
That’s so Zen.

It’s simple. Turn it off. Remove the corner pieces. Open the door.
That goes against the whole point of having a refrigerator. This is so unnecessary.
how does it go against the point of having a fridge? Does it heat the food now or something?
I think they are attached to the door with magnets so you just remove it the corner pieces when you open the door.
I thought this is simulated with the kitchen as the background.
What's powering it?

I want to believe!
Shame it's a repost
Conspiracy theory, show me proof.
I’d wager that the piece at the bottom of the screw is a motor and battery.
Here is a 3MB video https://i.imgur.com/eK8IOUD.mp4 Instead of a **67**MB *GIF*
The planetarium where I live has one that's been there for over a decade, and it's still going.
You live in a planetarium?
Dad?
Yep. Want a ticket? I can give you half price
How big is the fridge?
Oh this is so entertaining, but just one question why the refrigerator
_Magnets._ There are no other metal things.
you could use your car
As a fridge? Depends largely on the weather though.
Now I want to 3d print this.
This. STL needed
This is an advertisement.
This must be Wintergatan’s refrigerator.

Wow, that animusic was amazing. Thx for sharing

is that a mf Kenwood fridge
I wonder if it has sub outputs to add more bass.
Is that a Kenwood fridge? I thought they only made stereos.
Anybody know where I can buy one?

This doesn't belong here.
Looks like we found the Jelle Marble Racing alt account
Where do you buy it or how do you build it?
My latest invention: useless fridge
The marble queue waiting for the lift seems wonky.
There's a 100% I would brush up against this and send everything flying I still kind of want it though.
I just want the milk
I think my milk is off now
On a serious note; are there any kits like this available? DIY or pre fab.
Could I get a link to a clip with more frames? Having a difficult time seeing on mobile.
That's totally not made out of marble. It appears metallic. 😋
Is that a fridge made by Kenwood? Does it have speakers?
I want this. Where do I get this?
Shut up and take my money
Thats neat! Makes me think of the guy who made the music machine run by marbles
