In this video, I demonstrate how you can easily create some mechanical sound effects using items you can record around your house.

All the items I recorded were performed in a rhythmic and mechanical manner. With the raw files, I could then import them directly into S-Layer, turn on the Loop parameter, and randomize the files to create organic mechanical sounds.
