Lego paper aeroplane maker

Someone has built a machine, from Lego, that folds a sheet of paper in to a paper aeroplane and then launches it. And the result flies quite well too. Even better, it can be loaded with several sheets and it just runs through them all making aeroplanes.

Entirely pointless but total genius. I loved it. But turn off the sound - the music overlay is annoying.

Superb!

I watched it a few times and still haven't worked out how the wings fold up.

Brilliant bit of engineering to produce a paper plane and it probably takes the same time as I do to make one and test it...

* first ran a bearing (design failure in original engine)
* second had a failure of the water outlet on top of the engine (pls check yours)

Few others here, I like the clock.

The Rubik cube one was a local school competition challenge I think. All very clever.

Dyson seems to be a couple of months off usable kit ... unless he takes a punt on his design getting approval and starts production now.

I was really thinking , not too seriously, about ventilators made of Lego... or better still, a machine built of Lego churning out ventilators.
