Cocktail Machine Mixes Booze & Engineering

After watching Back to the Future as kids, we always wanted a morning machine like Doc Brown’s—you know, the Rube Goldberg one in the opening scene that uses like 15 household appliances to make breakfast and feed Einstein.

Well, we’re all grown up now, and enjoy a stiff drink now and again (and again), which is where this dope cocktail-making machine comes in. Made by a New Zealander named Joseph Herscher, it uses a rake, a toy truck, a wooden spoon, and a bunch of ball bearings to make a drink called Falling Water (basically a vodka lemonade with a cucumber slice). The best thing about it? Once you’ve got it set up, all you need to do is set your glass down to make another drink. Check the video after the jump.
