The Incredible Hand-Cranked Marble Machine X That Uses 2,000 Marbles to Make Music Also Plays Drums

The incredible Marble Machine X, a hand-cranked instrument that uses 2,000 marbles to make music now also plays drums. Creator Martin Molin (previously) of the band Wintergatan explained that this new and particular skill took a great deal of time, but was well worth it in the end.

This was really difficult to achieve, I had to make several redesigns and tweaks over the last weeks to reach this milestone. But its a real proof of concept, still a lot of room for improvement. Very happy to finally being able to show you this!

The posters hanging in the background and other items are available for purchase through the Wintagatan TeeSpring Store.
