New Video + New Parts Arrived



Just couple of hours after uploading "Lego Nescafé Coffee Pack Vending Machine" I checked my mailbox and saw a package. I was very excited to see that it was a Lego order I placed a couple of weeks ago. Now there are a total of 11 Lego technic gear racks which are essential for every Mindstorms NXT machine. Now I will be able to build automatic machines on a larger scale as these racks will allow motors to move things around.

Lego Oreo Vending Machine *LCM V8* - New Era of Mindstorms NXT

Today, November 8th, I released my 8th version in my Lego Candy Machine series. This time I took the challenge of building a fully equipped Mindstorms NXT machine on a 16x16 baseplate, one of the smallest dimensions I have encountered on YouTube. This machine is just more than a traditional NXT machine. After the coin is registered by the light sensor and the servo motor is triggers to dispense the Oreo, I have included a touch sensor which when pressed, it confirms that the Oreo has been taken out and then the servo motors rotates back to refill the dispenser. I really enjoyed building this machine and  I think I will start using Mindstorms NXT equipment more often from now on.

Lego Candy Machine V7 *Two Options*

As TheLegoHow YouTube channel hit 500 subscribers, I decided to make something new, a machine with two different options. In this machine one can chose between red or yellow M&M's when 50 Euro Cents are inserted. All coins that are not accepted quickly get rejected and the color can be only chosen once the money is inserted. I would like to celebrate this amazing milestone with a new type of machine in my Lego candy machine line. Thank you so much for your support and I hope to see this channel grow faster and bigger.

Thank you!

Just Hit 500 Subscribers!!!

Today, 11/10/15 is the mark of a large milestone. TheLegoHow Youtube channel has hit 500 subscribers! This is an amazing and motivating milestone. When I first started this channel, I could have never seen this day coming. I was inspired to start creating my own machines after seeing the Lego machine kings, Electrydragonite and AstonishingStudios. This amazing milestone now motivates me to keep uploading new machines as I know all my viewers and subscribers are supporting me and my machines. Thank you for always supporting my channel. This means a lot to me.

Thank you so much! See you at my next machine!

Who said Lego candy machines are only for candy? In this version the machine dispenses 1 box of Nesquik Chocolate Milk for every 50 cents and rejects anything lower. Be one of the first ones to check it out!
