...I've yet to see someone else present an ITZ solution for this level:...
Well, I did it several weeks ago. It was kind of an accidental solution. Over the labor day weekend, I was showing my brudder-N-law the contraption website (he loves it!) and we worked together on re-creating my earlier solution. And here it is:

ITZ BIG TIME. WOOT! WOOT!

When I try the link it say that it is restricted and that I can't view it unless I by the full version.

 

But your bringing it up reminded me of a solution that I don't think that I posted here. On another board, someone came up with the challenge of solving for U-turn so that the device continually repeats (the target enters the goal, leaves the goal, and then repeats the loop).

 

Here is the solution I came up with. It turned out to be a little trickier than I first suspected. My first several attempts resulted in contraptions that would repeat maybe 2 or three times and then hang up.

 

I've let this solution run for quite a long time and it hasn't hung up yet. Eventually the triangle with the hanging rod will be pushed all the way to the bend and wedge, but the device will continue to run.

Why did you add the big triangle with the hanging rod? It doesn't seem to serve a purpose.

 

Too bad about the restriction on viewing the additional levels. They are much more fun and challenging than the original levels (some of them anyway).
