Ever wanted to mess around with pneumatics and go the next level? Then our GBC 28 Pneumatic Scissor Elevator is the right challenge for you!
This complete automated system is only power by air. Of course now we have attached a LEGO motor to the pump but you can also just pump air by hand. Valves and cylinder work in harmony together to bring the platform up and down. A very rewarding learning experience during building once completed. Made completely from parts of the LEGO 42080 Forest Machine set. Get the building instructions today and start engineering.
Our GBC 10 Funfair is already 7 years old. The cool thing about LEGO is that you can rebuild anything, anytime you want. So did Jorian from the Netherlands and this is what he wrote us. See also the fan build he send us!
6 years ago I bought and build the GBC 10 Funfair. After that I have sold the LEGO set but recently I got the set again and the first thing I did was to rebuild the GBC 10 FunFair. PV-Productions truly got the most out of this LEGO set and after building you are left with not much parts. Very well done! I also create my own GBC now and I like it a lot! Thanks.
Thanks for sharing this with us Jorian and hearing the nice words!
A little zigzag is never a bad idea. The “water droplets” from the LEGO 42152 Firefighter Aircraft set are the perfect size to split a 3 width path into a 2 width zigzag path. The sound it makes it oddly enough very satisfying. Try this for yourself!
Here in the Netherlands if feels like summer is over and we are slowly getting into the shorter days where it is becoming dark much earlier. The perfect opportunity to try our GBC Glow Balls which absolutely shine under these circumstances. The GBC group at Brickslopes (Utah USA) also used our GBC Glow Balls in their layout this year. Beyond the Brick interviewed the GBC layout coordinator Neil Snowball in which he explains carefully how what every module is and how it works. A very epic layout with a lot going on. Well done!
He even makes a shout out to our GBC Glow Balls which you can hear at minute 1:44. Joshua Hanlon asks Neil “What is the difference between the orange/white & green GBC Balls?”. Where Neil responds “Those are the GBC Glow Balls from PV-Productions”. It has to note that it was not planned as the white GBC Balls were missing. However a big benefit is that, next to the glowing in the dark, they really stand out on the module, so that it a good thing. Thank you Neil! We very much appreciate it.

Our friends at Toypro wrote a nice article about our latest GBC 51 Gravel Works. A model made from all the parts of LEGO 42131 CAT D11 Bulldozer set. Check out what they have to say about it and, while you are there, why not get the LEGO set there as well.
So many things are happening, GBC balls are rolling everywhere in the GBC 51 Gravel Works. With 6 modules and lots of paths for the balls to roll over, this GBC has a bit of everything. PV-Productions, the well-known makers of GBC machines (Great Ball Contraptions), have made another great machine. This time from the set 42131 Cat D11 Bulldozer (App-Controlled)…..
Make a wish with the GBC Funnel Gravity Well. In the upcoming GBC 52 Flight Fair we use the left version to form around the general shape of the complete GBC structure. It fits nicely into place but still is, as always, an optional part to extend the GBC layout.
