Founder and engineer Philip Verbeek has been featured in a popular French LEGO Magazine called Briques Mag. This edition focesses on the Great Ball Contraption in general and what better way to spread the world than to get other builders started. Our modules are the perfect fit for that.

For the non French speakers we have included a translated version at the bottom of this post.

English Translation:

I learnt about Great Ball Contraptions at a young age and when I began publishing videos of my own designs on the internet, my work grew more popular. I set up a company in 2017 to build and commercialize building instructions of my designs. We always build our models from parts of one official LEGO set. This is more challenging for sure but in this way it is really easy for others to get started in the wonderful world of GBCs.

GBCs are great in that you can put a lot of creativity into them, and they teach you some out-of-the-box thinking. In that respect, GBCs have a lot more to offer in the way of creativity and resourcefulness than any of the standard Technic models by LEGO® for example. I look upon them as big puzzles, and designing new GBCs is such fun.

For the future, we are also focussed on the combination of LEGO® and electronic and unique parts for GBCs. We listen to our own needs and the community feedback when we come up with a new products. Presently, we already have USB Power box to power your LEGO models, GBC Funnels and Looping and many cables accessories for LEGO electronics. Of course we will always stick to our roots in designing Great Ball Contraption, as it is too much fun to build with LEGO!
