have you considered a disconnect for the pedal for when its not needed? I can see someone (you) cranking away at the drivewheel like crazy and accidentally slipping a foot under the pedal, forcing the machine to a halt/crushing your foot/jarring the machine...

Konetsu hmm, we have a clutch between the flywheel and crank, but i had actually missed the danger of the foot being crushed underneath... AAAA why does it have to be so hard always!!! Thanks for pointing it out, the MMX have several spots where it would just act as a meatgrinder if you stick body parts into it,now i am aware of yet another one... OH wait! i can make the pedal flex upwards but not downwards, this way any foot underneath will be safe, thanks for your comment led to this simple solution! When you see that flexing pedal on tge world tour you will know you helped saving my foot. //M

Nice and simple fix, add some spring tension downwards so it doesn't flap around without load and you're good to go, now you're just risking a nasty shinner ;P But there's a solution for that too, shinguards! (fast forward a few years, the MMX has been renamed the MGX and comes with a full protective suit for the user, after horribly mutilating the 3 previous operators... Because the show must go on!) Jokes aside. there's always a balance with what level of safety concessions to make... Another solution might be a twin lever action on the pedal arm, moving it out of reach whilst it's not used without disengaging it. edit: I'm thinking something in line of a parallelogram operation, moving it up and back.

It's never easy, but I think that's the point, why it's so exciting. If it will be easy, you probably won't have 915k viewers! Design = encountering problems like this :) compromises between visual side, performance, production, ergonomic, safety and so on! Sometimes, little step backward to make a big step forward and and vice versa. It is very helpful, that you have audience like Konzetsu.

Time traveler from the 2020: this machine has a motor now, and the MMX looks amazing.

Did you consider the solution used in old style sewing machines? They used a centre pivoted treadle - this way you can support your own weight while treadling without all of the unsupported leg flailing.

@newtonbricoman1694

I agree with that . Martin ,the way that the pedal is built is not ergonomic , you will be unbalanced and will not be able to support the action for a long time without stressing the left leg. You will be tired from the movement rapidly. , unless being sit. I am following you from your fist machine , keep going . Martin!

jossesphere On a sewing machine yes you're right but I think it would be okay. Another thing is I was wrong to say the treadle foot plate was centre pivoted, I misremembered that the pivot point is more like 25% from front of the foot plate. That way the players foot is better positioned to move the treadle with their ankle above the rocking point and at the same time support a good ammount of the weight of the player.

Make sure that your foot won't hurt during playing the machine. Due to wheel's inertia movement, you can crash your foot if you accidentally put it between pedal and floor! I know this effect from old sewing machine of my grandma

In fact all that is needed is the freewheel mechanism between the flywheel and the connection rod movement. It will hardly be visible.

Seeing this thing in action is going to be the coolest thing this year at this rate

So anxious to see the MMX in completion. I have been following this build series since the first MM went viral. Fantastic engineering, musical talent, and video editing. A+ my friend. 👍🏻

Watching that ratchet lift in action is really satisfying for some reason. The anticipation for marble machine X is almost too much to bear!

I love how a demonstration of how a piece of the machine works, turn into an impromptu "Hey I can play music on this thing" song.

Love how he was dealing with this style of divide-by-four so long ago, and ended up going back to something very similar to it for his final design after tons of different iterations

I was sure that at 8:45 we were in for Martin saying 'Let me add a kick drum to that' but hey that's OK! I love the 'Machine-Human interface ergonomics' at the beginning. You are right that is the only way to do it. 'Feel' is everything to us humans. :) Thank you for another mid week boost Martin.

8:42 Zach De La Rocha just spit out his tea. Well done. I cherish Wednesdays.

I love everything about you and your amazing group, the problem solving, the music, the instruments. Its absolutely awe-inspiring. I am always extremely excited to watch the wintergatan wednesdays, they inspire me and help me solve problems in my own projects. Thanks for making my life greater.

your works and contents are the pinnacle of youtube dude.

I normally find this stuff boring but I love this series

This is just so incredible. Been watching for 2 years, great progress.

There is A LOOOT of stuff that will turn, driven only by the force of the pedal and inertia of the system. I really hope that, when all the parts will be working, you can make the machine to roll without suffering too much for the friction :(

Ditocoaf, he might have to, but he might not want that to be the case... If nothing else, he could add a bicycle pedal, but that would make it difficult to play the instrument... Might be able to do it if he could power it with his weight? Like a stair-stepper exercise machine; he would step up and his weight would transfer into mechanical energy for the machine. He would constantly need to be "climbing stairs" but it would allow both of his hands to be free and he wouldn't need to brace against anything.

I love that at 8:45 Martin couldn't help but have his musical side come out as he plays a rhythm on the Ratchet Lifter.

This machine is much better, the way this guy has had an idea to make a marble machine, then saw it was bad, built upon that into something that's like 1000x better is just beyond me. This man belongs in the Steampunk Era like good LORD.

My opinion can be summarized in four words... YOU ARE A GENIUS

I always love your videos. Like to see how you solve different problems. Watch every week.

You have really stepped up the mechanic's in the system, please don't rush the work like I would. I hope the best for you and know how hard it must be too take your time on this one. ❤ from the U.S.

Wow dude, I can almost hear hte creativity gears turning in your head! This is definitely climbing fast my dream job list

I subscribed to the channel for the updates on the marble machine x. I keep watching the videos for for those improvised moments like that sick ratchet solo.

I got so excited because I forgot it was Wednesday and I've had a bad day, this made it so much better!

ALMOST THE MILLION! I BELIVE IN YOU!

Great progres and one step closer. Thanks my friend. I will go visit the machinist now.

OK. Martin can officially play most anything... Like the ratchet, and the demag setup. Pretty simple, not bad in the wear points and shouldn't be hard to keep them quietish. Fun times and music ahead! Stubat

What I love about watching you work on this project, is that you make music out of anything. Here's a new part of the machine (ratchet lift). Hang on, let me play a tune on it. You can't help yourself. You are a music nerd. Love your work. =)

💥Choose the right material for your new lifting system, otherwise it will get very loud‼️ Very nice video. You are one of the only persons who keep theyr style, and put a lot of work in a video, although theyr channel is growing😊 (Sorry for any spelling mistake, I'm from austria😅)

I love how you get distracted and proceed to make impromptu music that still sounds good. ;D

I never knew how badly I needed a Marble Machine version of Killing in the Name until right now.

Jeez, a close up on the 3-D model of the Marble machine looks like the inter workings of Big Ben. I’m very exited to see the final product.

I am excited to see how you are progressing & looking forward even more to see the completion of all your hard work! The video of the original MM was my introduction to your music & talent. I have now listened to my CD thousands of times, & need that new one... Hurry 🙂!!! No, on second thought, nothing worth while should ever be rushed. Thanks for allowing us to glimpse inside the Making Of MMX!

You’re a mechanical genius I don’t know how you come up with this machine.

i love this type of episodes

Laughed out loud at the impromptu marble lift Rage Against the Machine performance. As always great video, thank you for sharing!

I've been watching Wintergaten Wednesday since Episode 1! Can't wait for the X to be done!

Ima big fan of the new ratchet lift system, it looks much better. I'm stoked to see the end product!

Couldn't wait to see it come together. It is good to be obsessive with it. But just a friendly reminder, the illussion that there can be a perfect marble machine can give one too much anxiety. Only you know when it is time to let it go.

very excited to see the finished instrument :)

You would be a fantastic engineer. I mean professionally. This is great engineering at work!

We cant wait to see you in Toronto, Canada.

You could add a spring to the treadle so it's always in the up position when not in use, add another spring so it's biased ready to spin in the right direction. When you were prototyping i had originally thought of a counterbalance.

I really enjoy the way your brain works. Almost like mine, but overclocked.

One of your best videos. Nice job, and keep it up!!!

You could improve that treadle pedal a lot by just looking at an old sewing machiene or the kicker on a base drum. The whole pedal should not be flying up and down like you made it now.

Very interesting to see how you think out your designs. I totally get how you require a mechanical system to have a nice appearance and a interesting movement as well as be very functional.

Everything that makes sounds is an instrument for you.

I use a treadle lathe every day for my work. It is really important to have the placement of the foot pedal under your center of gravity. Having the pedal in a comfortable location will reduce fatigued while standing on one foot for an extended period of time. You may want to consider having the foot pedal arm hing at the same point as your knee then use a pitman arm to attach to a crank. This will help you stand more comfortably and give you options later to adjust for speed and toque simply be changing the length of the crank arm. It looks like you have much more rotating mass and gear friction then on your first machine, if that's correct it's going to take more toque to keep it going.

Great progress.
