Thursday, July 05, 2012 1:02:33 PM Less impressive after I saw the video that canusuck posted. All it is is a moving wedge that the bricks are stacked on. People are still laying the bricks, they're just standing to do it. |

Thursday, July 05, 2012 1:02:22 PM @auburnjunky, they're going to repair the machines, because the American't's aren't educated enough. |

Thursday, July 05, 2012 12:56:24 PM Actually, two or more workers ride the machine, placing the bricks in the desired pattern as it rolls slowly along. Sorry to disappoint. |

Thursday, July 05, 2012 12:55:05 PM It is real. It is a Dutch invention and I have seen it live in action. A marvel of engineering. |

Thursday, July 05, 2012 12:53:22 PM "I'm doubting this is real don't see how it could do that! If it is I want it for a day I'm going to get rid of my lawn mowing this crap is overrated!" As canusuck's link shows, it is legit. BUT, the workers stand there and lay out the brick pattern. In this picture it looks like you just load it up and the machine does the rest. THAT would be AWESOME! |

Thursday, July 05, 2012 12:51:28 PM It's real. What you're not seeing in the picture is that there's place to stand in front of the direction it's moving, where people pull from the bricks up top and set them into the tray in the correct order. The machine moves very slowly, so you have plenty of time to find the right pieces and put them in order. |
