Quick build and test of a Lego pump that sucks air. It can generate a 70% vacuum.
At the end I show another Lego way to create vacuum: Lego pneumatic pump pushing air out of a jar. This can generate a 63% vacuum. Water boiling test to prove the gauge was correct. Enjoy!

With a bunch of legos you can basically build anything you want, with vacuum pumps you can create an engine
wuz good smoke
You can even build a damn train
@@semranurhafize8044 I didn't even pass the damn mission yet
We need a fully functional man sized Lego tank now
but lego stuff is more expensive than the stuff you build with it
This actually helped me alot when it comes to engineering and physics knowledges tho, and Lego is actually the perfect material for some demonstration 👌

Most engineers start with Legos
@@bradprimeaux8443 True
I was introduced to robotics with LEGO Mindstorms EV3, and man, it's so fascinating.
2018: Testing Lego pulley systems 2079: Lego particle accelerator
Dangerous i dont support that
@Light8 IT WAS A JOKE
3000:lego life ex v2 reviver
theoretically, if you had enough legos (and enough batteries to power said Legos) i THINK you actually could create a lego particle accelerator
Try putting two or three of those in series, I would like to see if the vacuum increases in strength
Cascading... That's actually a very good idea. Should work. I wonder to which % vacuum you could get with, say, three of these in series.
we call this staging in refrigeration vacuum pumps. single stage, two stage.
Your main issue here is that the seals won’t be adequate to hold a decent vacuum. Air will likely permeate in through the tubing and seals.
@@SkigBiggler Could still try tho
It will pull vacuum faster, but the ultimate vacuum achieved will be about the same.
I really love the pneumatic lego elements! I remember building a working 2 cylinder pneumatic engine, powered by the pressure caused by bicarbonated water
I understood that
Pff. Should have used tricarbonated water for 50% more power!
Sad that just a couple Pistons could add up to $100
@@Camqu9 yeah when you can get a real brass steam engine miniature twin cylinder for less
A water powered engine? Oh no
I'm impressed it can pull even 50% vacuum. Very neat.
well vacuum is like 1 atm pressure but negative ... not so much force if you think about it
@@uhliuv but it's lego
With this and the gearbox you could make a super cool lego RC car
Зачем rc car gearbox?
Or upgrade the sub again
Pin he
Air shifted sequential??
Oh hey! Another fantastic LEGO creator on KZhead!
Now I can use this video as proof that you can technically craft a vacuum pump with lego, therefore I can add that as a recipe in Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead!
Is there Lego in cdda? Or is it a mod?
Huh, what a weird coincidental meeting of my hobbies. Hello fellow CDDA player, hope you don't get gored by a moose!
In 2050 my man's gonna build a fucking atom bomb out of lego
That’s the finale.
nukes are too simple, he's gonna go to the moon on a rocket made of legos
@@Minty1337 SpaceX: Finally, this is the moment humanity has been waiting for all these decades. We have just landed on Mars... Houston, there's a knocking on the door. BEC: Sup, what took you guys so long?
Make a space station and an environment dome out of LEGO
@@gigaslave Actually, that is not a bad idea, it's a great one. In the future, buildings on earth and in space could be made of modular parts that are cheaper to put together and move vs traditional standalone ones. :) Already the tech has been developed
I'm excited to see what they might use lego to do next, I would've never thought Lego could do vaccum
Nuclear bomb

@Kitan Mani we talkin' LEGO here we aren't your target demographic
More scientific papers should just have "this was not part of the experiment" whenever anything doesn't go according to plan
With the versatility of LEGO, and even having once owned a kit that taught me the basic principles of engineering and transferring motion, I'm still always surprised to see what this channel creates.
Now to keep adding pistons to get a lower vacuum pressure! I wanna see how far can we go before diminishing returns
I think maybe the seals are a big limiting factor here
@@philcorrigan5641 put an entire vacuum pump with vacuum chamber into a larger vacuum chamber with a higher volume pump. When the outer chamber is pumped down to 0.3 bar absolute, the inner pump's seals will see 0.3 bar as the external pressure, so that pump has a chance of reaching a significantly lower pressure in its much smaller chamber.
@@hamjudo and then maybe put that whole set-up inside an even bigger vacuum chamber with an even bigger pump….
@@philcorrigan5641 vacuum pumps all the way down...
You come up with the most random little creations that are so brilliantly expressed, and oddly satisfying to watch! Keep it up!! 🤟🏻🤟🏻
It's a great day when you upload!
What the freaking heck Kitano mani making love????? Why say that in a lego video
Thanks, I already saw a 20% length increase with this pump!
Next: Lego Vacuum Cleaner
It's Vary possible
Put more pumps in series to achieve greater level of vacuum, see how far you can push it
Lego should release a heavy duty line of lego. That way if you decide to make that monstrosity it will hold because its made from solid titanium (heavy duty lego)
Titanium would be expensive as fuck, but stainless steel would be super neat
@@joldsaway3489 perfection comes at a price
Lagum Lemoni Titanium’s just super challenging to work with. Not at all mass-producible for lego.
Awesome videos as always, keep up the work!
Maaaan these Legos are so complex, I've seen people comment they have trouble with the manual for normal Legos. I think those people are flat out stupid, so this channel just slaps me in the face
This is incredible. Nicely done. 👍
That actually worked better than I thought it would. Good job
I love your channel, it's always straight to the point and let's us follow the process!
Man, keep this up, I subscribed for good videos and I'm getting the product as advertised!
I've seen so many videos on this channel and I keep being amazed. The creator is super creative and probably a genius in many ways.
Man...What would we do without legos..?
Or better yet..Big brain people...
hi cute this channel also amazing kzhead.info/sun/Y5l6ntOtjKhvhaM/bejne.html
What a level of creativity and knowledge
If the world ends, we can rebuild with this man's LEGO knowledge.
If the world ends, youtube will end as well... not sure how long it will take... better start transcribing to stone in a cave so it lasts longer.
I swear someday I’ll see “Lego Nuclear Power Plant” on my notifications from you
Yessir! Another Brick Experiment video! I love this dude, whatever he makes it's always so cool and original! Keep the videos up
The lego being put together is satisfying
Amazing, bro. More videos like this, i like it. Thanks😘
"Stay tuned for next time when I build a nuclear reactor"
This will be very useful for improving your submarines even further😄great vid
He's a man of focus, commitment, and sheer fucking will
With every Lego video it comes with asmr
That is surprisingly competent for it just being Lego.
Phew. Glad he clarified that no sensors were harmed in the making of this video
You are a genius my friend!
Satisfing is the click of da brick
I love how the sped up version sounds almost like a vacuum pump
what a MIND BLOWING idea
ngl I was super stoked when i saw the title
For being Lego this works surprisingly well
i've got a lego set whit these vacuum pumps, its a lift truck or something, its actually pretty cool, i definetly reccomend it if you want to like move a crane up or down, and that sort of stuff.
Ooooh, I can sense more advanced submarine videos coming soon …
bro i love those gear videos
This man makes amazing content. Let’s get him to 2 mil
Great job .Keep it up :)
Cant wait for lego super sonic jet For real tho if you can make a lego plane that'd be sick
Can I just point out that -20psi is an impressive vacuum. My former manager told me that a -20psi vacuum is an aeronautical standard. I believe him, although I haven’t found any evidence to support that just yet. He previously worked in the aeronautical industry.
That is in inches mercury(in Hg) not PSI. considering they are at standard atmospheric pressure in their room which is only about 14.5 PSIA so a -20 PSID would make the inside of the jar -5.5PSIA which is not possible. But 20 in HG is about 9.8 PSI which is still impressive as it means the pressure in the jar is only about 4.7 PSIA. Now if you pressurize a space to above atmospheric pressure you can then experience differential pressures where there is an apparent vacuum of 20 PSI, but not in the conditions of this video.
This is an excellent demonstration of how much Lego can suck
Love your videos! Do you plan schematics out for these ahead of time? Or do you just come up with the designs on the fly? Just so curious how you’re able to know where each part goes and build everything so elegantly (other than tons of experience of course). Mechanical engineering background?
He uploads a vacuum pump just as I’m done with a vacuum piston engine.
Perfect engineering
That final air hissing noise at the end 👌🏻😞👌🏻
Beautiful video bro 👍👌🚜👍👌👌👌❤️
Wow that was real cool
Very nice, I am always waiting for your new video notification
This man is going to create a lego time machine at this rate
That's a lower pressure than the peak of Everest. Good job.
theoretically if you make the pump with 2 or more xl motors you shuld make it go faster and more %of vacuum. cool vid btw (edit: you may add another piston and make it pump nonstop so youll have constant pumping out. )
Yesss this tipe of videos i like it
For some reason this feels very surreal
This is better than any engineering video
Incredible!
2:09 those are some sick beats my dude
Great, dude!
Every upload, we get closer and closer to him building a space ship out of Legos and leaving this planet.
It's amazing 😯❤️🔥
lol you didn't see the video when you posted comment
I love Lego pneumatics could you pls do more vids on them
Great video !
Again amazing
Bell works, nice
Finally some useful 18+ builds for the grown ups
that's impressive!
50 years later this guy is gonna build a rocket with Legos
Bro has the power to make a real size working car with just lego
Ready for the drive able car video in a year
I love it when you have new videos
i love your videos, gretings from Spain

Cool, that lego pulls the same as my vacuum pump and probably cheaper too, no oil either.
cool ! new lego mechanism, Круто ! Новый лего механизм
That's awesome!
Awesome Video! You should experiment with my Lego Pneumatic Engines, they run on compressed air.
This guy will be the first person to make a working lego car
0:19 Such a satisfying sound
Imagine you gotta get your blood pressure checked and your doctor pulls out a bin of legos and starts making the machine
man just timed a lego vacuum pump holy heck
2:10 you got a nice beat there
I think if you manage to make the valve tubes shorter it can still improve
Second inversion of slider crank mechanism. Where the longest link is fixed. Also called as oscillating cylinder system. Used exclusively in aeroplanes
Very cool!
I think lego is the best way to learn mechanical engineering
Try to build an engine from these pistons for compressed air and build transmissions with different gear ratios. And then finally try to measure the strengt of it.
pog aleways wanted to make this but i don't have the things...dude ur soo cool
This man is a higher living being
real, amazing on top video
While it's not PRACTICAL, it's still extremely cool!!
Just amazing!
