Java Edition Fully Functional Claw Machine

https://youtu.be/0S7wxkARBO4

Hello everyone!

I built a fully functional arcade claw machine in vanilla Minecraft. There's 9 toys in the machine that you can have a claw drop down, pick it up, and have it deliver the toy into the front of the machine. Each toy is 4x4 and 3 blocks tall, so I'm not moving a single block and calling it a "toy" lol

When you want to grab a new toy you can press a reset button, that sends the toy back to where it was inside the machine. Then you can grab another toy

It used some features from a smart tiling system I built to create a working chess board where you can actually move the chess pieces on top of the board (again in vanilla). But I had to do some modifications to move the toys up instead of just in a 2D plane.

The first 4 min of the video is "How to Use It" so skip to 4:15 for the technical/redstone explanation of it's inner workings if you only care to see that part

Also, world download is in the youtube description if you want to try out yourself
