About:Hello! I'm Kyle, also known as Shadowman39. I like building with mostly Knex, and all of my Ibles are Knex-related. I also like Lego. I also play some computer games in my free-free time when I'm not building, like Minecraft, Terraria, and RCT3. Also, I'm a Christian. :-) _______________________ On my page you'll find lots of different Knex projects, from ball machine lifts to useful items. I hope you enjoy! If you have any suggestions, comment below on my OrangeBoard. :-) _______________________ Current avatar: Target of my skeeball machine Past avatars: 6. The blade spinning on my miter saw 5.

If you want to view all of my OrangeBoard on one page, click this link! It might take a while to load. :-P

Saw your newest ball machine on SSCoasters...since I'm not a member of that site I couldn't post anything, but I wanted you to know that this could be the biggest thing since Metropolis! (Waaaaay bigger. Even with only the main lifts and separators, it looks AWESOME!) :-D In my humble opinion, if you complete it it might become the best ball machine of all time...but then again, that might just be me getting carried away by the magnificance of something I could never build... ;-D

Shadowman39 (author) in reply to MarsCrystalManMay 18, 2013. 11:23 AM

Haha, thanks man! I'm having to buy more pieces though, so it might take longer to complete.

MarsCrystalMan in reply to Shadowman39Jun 4, 2013. 8:28 AM

That thought makes me laugh...You have to buy more pieces (since you have probably ten times more than I do even after recent expansion...) I guess it happens! ;-D
Also, don't give up on that ball machine. It would be so terrible to let all the magnificent work you've done so far go to waste. In no time I'm sure you'll be awing the instructables community with more epic lifts and elements! :-D

Shadowman39 (author) in reply to MarsCrystalManJun 14, 2013. 10:47 AM

Haha, I've bought more now so I'm more determined to build. :-P

MarsCrystalMan in reply to Shadowman39Jun 14, 2013. 2:20 PM

Yea! :-D

Shadowman39 (author) in reply to MarsCrystalManJun 18, 2013. 6:06 PM

Ah, glad to see that you put noses in your smileys. Smileys with noses RULE! :-D

Will your ball machine be finished before the knex contest closes?

Shadowman39 (author) in reply to sandroknexmasterJun 18, 2013. 6:04 PM

That's what I'm hoping for. :-) I don't know if it'll be eligible for entry though.

Is Jag56 your brother? And Tornado96? I don't understand it... :-D

Shadowman39 (author) in reply to dickheijboerJun 14, 2013. 10:46 AM

Jag is my brother, and Tornado is a good friend of mine. :-)

dickheijboer in reply to Shadowman39Jun 14, 2013. 12:27 PM

Haha, cool! I wish I had also friends who build K'nex ball machines. :)

But do you and Jag use the same K'nex? Because I sometimes see in videos of jag56 (by example K'nex ball machine Disco Track) buildings of you?
(If my English is not correct, don't be angry, I'm from Holland.. :P)

Shadowman39 (author) in reply to dickheijboerJun 15, 2013. 8:08 PM

Yeah, we use the same Knex. And I won't get mad about your English, I'm used to seeing incorrect English because of talking to Sorunome. :-D

sandroknexmaster in reply to Shadowman39Jun 17, 2013. 12:54 PM

Ah so many people think we're all Germans, but actually Sorunome is the only German knexer I know. Almost all others are Dutch, NOT German :p
And I'm another exception, because I live in Belgium (The only other Belgium knexers I know are toeti and Thibaultisthebest (yt))
