Rube Goldberg


an unlikely and absurdly designed machine intended to perform a simple function in the most complicated and indirect way. named in honor of reuben lucius goldberg (1883-1970), an engineer with the city of san francisco water and sewers department who became a pulitzer-prize winning cartoonist, sculptor and author. his long-running comic strip, “inventions”, displayed many such devices of his own design.
my grandfather built his own fuel injector with a rube goldberg set-up made of old plumbing parts.
