This thing is nuts. Doesn't look like it all went down in a single execution, but cool nonetheless. I also like the cell phone part...basically makes it so that you can continue it anywhere else in the world.

That must have taken forever to set up.

Ah, I remember this.
Things like these really intrigue me. The amount of patience and time it takes to make something like this..

We built one in my Intro to Engineering class like 6 years ago. We had to make it so that it would accurately time 3 minutes. Neat when they work, but a lot of trial and error in designing. Took us a couple weeks.

My buddy Kevin may. It's not as impressive as that video. We had a cascading water level. Kinda neat. I'll look around for whatever I have on it. I used to have all my stuff backed up on my school network drive that I can still access...but it seems to have disappeared.

Oh, i forgot to add...when we demonstrated it, it timed 2:59:10 and 2:59:50.
When we built it, we would range from 2:58 to 3:01, depending on the amount of water used. The head pressure of the start of the waterfall made a difference in flow.
