A Machine Lifts an Entire Glass of Milk Just to Dunk a Cookie

Cookie Dunker keeps the cookie fixed in place and electrically raises the glass of milk to meet it. An infrared remote shaped like a milk carton controls a 3D-printed scissor lift, slowly lifting the glass until the milk reaches the waiting cookie.

A linear actuator drives the lift. Creator Chanyanuch Charoensuk describes the project as inspired by Chindogu and deliberate over-engineering.
