People love to watch machines hoping to see them fail. NASCAR crashes put arses in seats.I can't figure out why I had to watch all the way to the end!

Very impressive. I would like to know more about the craftsmanship applied to the non-electronics parts ...

Ordering one now, plus shopping for other goodies. Between the sale price and the best GBP/US$ rate in years, it's nearly free.

Over-engineered !.
If the rotating selector disk stopped halfway round, the colour could be detected there, then the disk rotate to the drop slot. No need for the pushy thing.
In fact, with a bit more thinking, he could have done the whole job with just the rotating disk and a servo with an arm.
Still, it's very well made and programmed. Give the lad a pat on the back.
EDIT : Just looked at the Rev-Ed kit, they've pinched my idea
