Thought it would be a link to a Porsche Cayenne or Audi Q7!
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

That's excellent, could do with a few self-switching-off switches round my place...

Hate to be a killjoy - but a similar thing's been around for decades...
It was a money box - you put a coin in a slot, and a green hand comes out, grabs it and pulls it back.
I always wanted one when I was a kid...

That made my sides ache I'm trying to think of an application for it now like when the President throws the switch in the Whitehouse thinking
he's going to end civilisation as we know it the hand pops out and switches it back off again.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

i nearly didn't post it because i thought no one would find it funny 
I was laughing pretty hard for quite a few minutes
For a machine it seems to have tremendous amount of character. It seemed really pissed off but still defiant at the end

That is really good - The movement is very fluid
If you left it on your desk how long before someone switched the switch.
I work in IT and recon it would not last an hour ( even less if put a message DO NOT TOUCH )

It does tell you right at the end of the film where he got the idea and how to make it.

The link to the idea is just another video of asimilar contraption in a small perspex box - I think I prefer the wooden copy....
Any ideas of a wiring diagram, as it would be a laugh to put one together.... we could have a locostbuilders 'most useless machine'
competition!
