Renault are very good at making useless machines.

Renault are very good at making useless machines.

We had a Clio 1.9 diesel for 7 years and no problems only needed pads and shoes till someone stole it. Across the road is a Kangoo which is a friends car and he's done over 200,000 miles. It needed a new brake pipe last MOT. I think the experiences of a certain member on here may have tainted their reputation unfairly The cigarette smoking machine is certainly not useless, you can get all the benefits of second hand smoking without endangering someone else's health.

I'll second that...

I can admire the effort that went into that first machine but I can't for the life of me understand the motivation. I guess that is because I have so little artistic talent.

Guess he made it just for the fun of it ?
Just for fun, toss it into the ocean, and maybe someone in a couple of thousand years from now (if humanity survives) will find the encrusted lump and wonder what it was for, like the Antikythera Mechanism. Trouble is, none of us will be around to have a laugh.

I really, really like these sort of "machines" rolling ball kinetic art, as seen in the Movie Fracture (a great film as well)
