Lego gumball sorting machine

Say you needed to sort gumballs by color. Say you were colorblind like Hickey or your sorting fingers were mangled in a thresher? What should you do? Well, the best solution is to build a Mindstorms NXT robot to sort your gumballs for you and, potentially, encourage you sort out your damn priorities, nerd.

Sorry. Actually, I’m jealous of this guy simply because I always wanted to do cool stuff with Lego and the other kids on my block always took the big green board from me and then then pantsed me. So when I see people having fun with Lego, it hurts. It hurts bad.

This on is weak. If you’re going to do it… you might as well go all out like this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsBLN4eP2Y8

bigger, slower, and more expensive = better? plus, it says that one was built by a school group, not one person.
