You need to make it automatic to release the drinks and roll them down a track to your chair.

Cool. I made a V8 dispenser once, but it wasn't nearly as innovative--you just pulled a can out of the bottom of it.

So the drinks gets all shaken and splashes all over your face, keyboard, monitor and clothes?

Great idea!

Very innovative. Is there a way you could use a motor to perhaps make it automatic with the touch of a button?

Could always try that, but I don't see why that is faster than pulling a handle.

Neat! Add a motor and make it coin operated.

Nah, making a system that starts a motor when a coin dropped in is so much work.

Hi Maxlaam:

I am a K'nex newbie and just saw this contraption. Love it! Looks simple enough for me to duplicate. Any chance you can post the instructions? I am not sure if this is o.k. to ask on this forum. If not, my apologies.
Thanks!
