It’s simply great when you accidentally stumble across one of your own creations and see it described as “Best GBC ever!”. Thank you for the compliment, we hope you had fun building our GBC 21 Mine Factory!

Tips & Tricks Tuesday: Funky Funnels!
Are you making your own build and would you like to implement a funnel? Way to go! Since we’ve designed different funnels, there is always one that will enable you to go for it, no matter the steepness of the slope!
In our GBC 47 Mill Madness, we’ve found the opportunity to create the perfect slope and insert space so that all different GBC-Funnels can be implemented! This way, everyone can use the Funnels they already posses and experiment with the different GBC-Funnels.
Check out the different GBC-Funnels below to see which would suit your purpose!
Source of inspiration!
Ever wondered about the sources of inspiration of our engineers? It’s all around them: inspiration is found in daily observations. Think for example of the GBC 38 Funky Ferris Wheel or the GBC 47 Mill Madness! Just like most human beings, inspiration is, however, also found in social media. A great example is Wintergatan’s Marble Machine (check it out below!), a truly fascinating machine, which inspired the use of our Xylophone Keys! Who knows, maybe we’ll create such a machine ourselves one day? Wouldn’t that be cool?

Fun Fact Friday: GBC 33 Goofy Golf Park!
The Shooter Module includes 3 smaller mechanisms which work beautifully together to get a perfect hit every time! Designing these complex mechanisms in the most efficient, compact and reliable way possible really took the inner engineer out of us again. By spending a lot of hard work and brain power in this sub part alone we were able to succeed again.
Incorporating our GBC Funnel XL in the GBC 33 was one of the easiest tasks and felt like a pleasant change of workload ;)
GBC 48 coming up!
Whoop whoop, I can finally share with you guys the exciting news: GBC 48 is on it’s way!! What set do you think/hope will be used for the new GBC? Let us know!
Just a hint: we have already used this set before!
Now online: The GBC 47 Mill Madness Video!
Although it took some longer than usually, the video of our GBC 47 Mill Madness is finally online! We wanted to bring back our Dutch culture into our designs and what better way than by including our typical Dutch Windmill. This GBC also features the option to easily switch between the different GBC Funnels. Check out the different modules and let us know what you think!
