Sorry.  I thought about that.  I was going to do a screen capture, but it doesn't give the full effect. You may not find that level as funny as I do.  It could be offensive towards females.  It is related to 2 girls, 1 cup.

The video is definitely disgusting.  Knowing the video, you should the level funny.

Solution using the Chaos Theory.

It appears just about any Chaos combo will work.

Just a note of interest...

Some of these designs perform in vastly different manners on a Mac vs. a PC.

Did you see that 2 of your wheels changed the direction that they spin?

When I run it they all continuously spin clockwise.

yes i did. i have no idea what's going on with that. it does it in firefox and IE.

OK, I avoided this thread for days and now wish I'd stayed away completely.  and 

A couple of questions:

1) Any idea why the "chaos engine" things work the way they do? Somehow the cross-bracing in the wheels seems to allow them to store up a whole lot more energy than they would otherwise, or am I missing something?

2) I quickly realized that too much looking at other people's solutions not only would spoil it, but even worse it marks the individual puzzle as "completed" on my menu. Any idea how to go back and uncheck them? I've already gone & deleted the Fantastic Contraption cookies from my browser a couple of times to no avail. Not a big deal, since it just means I have to go solve them for real...

And my one, very humble contribution: in my limited browsing of others solutions, I didn't spot this approach to getting over jumbled stuff (this is in the very early "Junkyard" puzzle), when I hearkened back to my off-roading days and remembered that there were few problems that weren't amenable to the "bolt on a 36" Mud Terrain" approach:

Probably pretty common solution, but it was fun to come up with on my own.

Actually, the tire chains was a very original idea.

Sucks how this game sucks you in. Has me wasting hours at work and the same at home hehe.
