Two variations on this I'd be very curious to see: a) Using a non-newtonian fluid in the final tumbler. b) Placing a steel ball in the final tumbler, and filling it entirely with liquids (ie. no air pocket) of various viscosity.

A little late to the video. Another interesting idea would be to fill it with multiple fluids of different densities. e.g. Oil and water.

Science and great DnB riffs! Awesome!

Bruce Yeany We liked it ! and take a start of exchange of ideas between us. We make (traditionally handcrafted) mechanical puzzles in teak wood here in India and do inspirational college workshops. We recently held an exhibition at a cultural fest here in Lucknow, India and got invited to the The Regional Science Center as the appreciation of our work- it feels great and hope you can feel the thought. We are subscribed to your channel & look forward to like your next video Warm Regards

Thank you so much for your time sharing this helpful video

I had tumbling toys in my childhood days... this brings back some of those memories...

It would be great to see if a viscous fluid like honey would work. Filming it in a time lapse, set outside with clouds going by, or crowds of people would be fun to watch. It would also smooth out the movements of the tumbling.

Could you do one with fine grained sand? Would be interesting to see if that is faster or slower than a liquid.

I used to make these out of paper and a marble as a child. I knew them as "magic jumping beans" as they rolled awkwardly down a slope, no funny rods or special track required.

nice work

Omg amazing I wanna be like u one day

20 years later i realize that my physics teachers were crap. :(

I can see plans here for the worlds most boring toy: a tumbler filled with pitch. Or, more optimistically, the worlds most interesting pitch-drop experiment. I wonder what the most efficient possible tumbler would look like? Smooth rotation down the slope, transferring the weight without jolting... I guess the closer to the ...center... the center of mass gets, the more like a simple wheel and axle it becomes. It would be interesting to see multi axis tumblers too.

@YeanyScience

You raise some interesting questions here, however, I don't think I will try the pitch tumbler, I'd only get to see it turn over once or twice in my lifetime

You might consider a study of the toy "Fiddlesticks", which is just a rod with 2 spinning rings on it. Jearl Walker mentions it in his book "The Flying Circus of Physics".

nice way to mimic footsteps.

Bruce... try to make a honey day clock.

Neat video

In accordance with using a more viscous fluid, could the tumbler toy be calibrated to make an accurate clock, i.e it takes an hour to make one rotation?

@YeanyScience

it probably could if I had the track cut more accurately, such as a CNC machine. The imperfections in the current slots catch the axles and vary the time from one turn to the next

Interesting video. What about adding some kind of legs to each pair of peags so it can walk down a stair.

can you please make a clock out of that toy?

But now I want to see the honey one! Make the honey one! The longer the delay is, the more interesting...

how about a perpetual motion machine. use the same toy but build a wheel instead of a ramp and have a slight brake on the wheel so it won't spin too free. I wonder if that would work ??? Maybe I'll have to try it.

@emeryshurpit8656

Art Connolly No form of that would work, conservation of energy always comes out on top

it would be neat to put a motorized weight to make the tumbler go up the track

It would be interesting to compare using sealed tubes partially filled with liquid, and one has atmospheric pressure wile the other is under vacuum.

So, now I want to build one with a very viscous liquid (not sure about honey, though), and use it as a form of timekeeper. If you could find something which would take approximately an hour to tumble once, it could make an interesting clock.

With regards to honey: Time lapse idea?perhaps add a clock in the background for reference!also: Is it possible to make a light enough tumbler to use co2 vs. A lighter gas to tumble? (like the floating tin foil in a co2 filled fish tank experiment?)

Cute stuff. If you did fill it with honey, and it took all day, you could use it as a clock.

Is there a limit to the length of this tumbling stepper? Not the length of the staircase, but the length of the tube that the weight travels back and forth through. I would imagine at some point it would not achieve enough swing to restart the next step.

I had a toy just like this as a child. The body was more of a pill shape with a drawing of a silly face on the front.

Ha, that's the song Cox and crendor use.

Do one with liquid but reduce the hole size to make a timer. Try to get it to do one hour total time from top to bottom.

very funny, thanks

1..Can you make one that descends at a steady rate in a smooth, continuous motion? 2..Is it possible to make one that climbs up the track? Would have to have some form of input of energy to gain potential energy, I'd suppose. So my intuition would say no...but am I possibly wrong? :)

Oh, please please. Make one with honey! I'd liken to see one designed so well that it doesn't ever bounce, but moves fluidly. I wonder I could model this activity in Fusion 360. And... I wonder if one could be built with balloons where an air-filled balloon would have a helium filled balloon inside, causing the mechanism to climb up a ladder.

If you think about it the liquid one is like the bb one.

I'd love to see one made with mercury, I'm thinking it would move like the small balls do.

What would happen if you put a supercritical fluid in this?

Amigo que precio tienen los planos en PDF

Here's an idea... Put a non-Newtonian substance in there... like silly putty. It'd probably take all week to go down, but it'd still work.

You could actually put some sauce in the last one and let it mix itself.

Fill it with Mercury.

I suspect that it wouldn't work with honey. I think the impact as the device hits the stand, and the resulting flinging of the ball bearing, or liquid, before the device stabilizes, is necessary to keeping it moving. With honey, or even with a ball bearing and different device dimensions, the device would stabilize, hanging from the top pins and with the bottom pins lifted from the stand. The device would stop moving, and the weight -- the honey or ball bearing -- would remain at the end of the device closest to the uphill end of the frame. It shouldn't be hard to test this theory.

what if you make a zig zag tumbler?

Do you share the planes?

Mercury is VERY TOXIC! The tumbler part, the way it is made in the video, would probably leak a bit of it. NOT GOOD!. And a sealed glass vial of it inside the tumbler still wouldn't be safe as it could break as well. The small ball bearings in the one tumbler is a good approximation of what mercury would look and act like.
