Correction: WAY too much time on their hands.
I got a headache watching that, probably because of the hand-held camera. In any case, that machine had probably over 100 steps to it. A "simple" 12-15 step machine can take days to get working reliably, I can't imagine how much time they put into that one. Yikes.

It was getting a little long, but then they had the chess game. I liked that bit.

Hmmm, I suppose future such devices will need a twist. Say, using a Star Wars theme or building a whole house to use this stuff.
