What?!? A marble run computer? THIS IS THE STORY of how I spent 2 MONTHS building the WORLD's LARGEST addition MARBLE COMPUTER using the GraviTrax marble run system. Would I ever get it to work? Can this marble computer actually add two numbers together?

Computing never looked so fun! Learn a little bit about digital logic, the binary number system, reliability, and the engineering process of design, build, and test as I tell the story of building the world's largest computer made of marbles.
