The wheel is really elegant and there is potential to turn it into something very robust. If you tweak it a bit, it could probably live on the floor without mediation.
I like this one too. I also like that you tried using the binder clips in the other one. Which was a very clever way of incorporating a familiar object in my opinion.
If possible Sebastian, I'd like to suggest that Adam and/or Walter get to spend a little one-on-one time with Purin just to talk "elevators" specifically. I think having a couple of them that could live in the space without mediation would be really great.
Purin I also really like the idea of having you in the space working on prototyping there. I'm not sure if your schedule or inclination would allow for this, but if you're interested in doing that I would like to make it happen somehow.
Exciting to start the day seeing these.... thanks.
I like the wheel too! I wish I could see what's the mechanism that pushes the marbles out. It seems that you need more than one marble at the bottom to provide a little pressure to make the marble go into the holes, and so the last marble has trouble going in. Perhaps a little spring loaded arm would do the trick?
I agree with Sebastian: if you make this consistent, it could be permanently attached to the wall, and I think it would be really cool what people would come up with to use it!
