Introduction: Knex Rotating Coin Display

About: Hi, I'm KneXtreme. I'm a Christian and I'm home schooled. I love to build with almost anything especially knex. I also do Taekwondo and collect coins. Just so you know, I don't hang around youtube to…
     Ever since I saw the rotating coin display at the coin shop I use to shop at, I've wanted to build one, out of Knex of course :-)
The rotating coin display is aprox.15"x 10"x 10". It holds 12 coins and could probably hold more if you make it longer. The version I built is much smaller than the actual one. That's because I'm using most of my Knex for another project. See the rotating coin display in action in the video below. 



I'd appreciate it if you would vote for it in the Rods and Connectors Contest.
