Extreme Guide to Knex Ball Machines

Hello, I decided to make an Extreme Guide to Knex Ball Machine Stuff. I dont build High, as i dont have a million pieces. Enjoy!

I have a ton more elements, and I'll add more from time to time.

Step 1: Chain Link

This is The Ball Pick up on chain_

how can i make a ball machine

[Orangeprofessor]

what is the trampoline tower

[poncho531]

It is a huge knex ball machine that came out in like 1996, maybe?

[cubesquaredtothe1]

This is how you make smoother turns with this kind of pathing.

[kittensare]

how do you copy of that? its just the pieces how do you even put it togehter

[k-n-e-x(leaved ibls)]

[k-n-e-x(leaved ibls)]

[tjdtjd1]

Ive got to admit, the trapdoor looks awesome, and id like to see an instructable for it

[Tornado96]

[Darth Trainman]

Dude...

This is 95% the same as http://www.instructables.com/id/The-Ultimate-Guide-to-Knex-Ball-Machine-Elements/

Not cool.

[littledudeo]

Oh really? Your guide doesnt have the following things: -Loopty Loop -Spinzel (from the TT but thats my name for it) -Yellow Connector Turn -Spiral Bowl -Lift Drop From the BBF -Mini Drop -Tri-Spin (My own creation) -Trap Door -Scale -Flexi Loop This instructable is for moor abstract elements :)

[Darth Trainman]

A lot of them are from the BBF. Granted, mine were too, but here are the ones that are in mine: 1(In the First Ball Machine 'ible), 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17(Isn't it just a ferris wheel?), 18, 20 19 and 22, I admit, are pretty cool.

[littledudeo]

Yeah sorry if it seemed like copying, but i just wanted to add some more that people may have not heard of.

[The KNex Weasel]

I can assure you a lot of those are as well-known to ball tower enthusiasts as anything. I bet you got that spiral bowl idea from me or someone else who got it from me.

[littledudeo]

crap i spelled more wrong

[littledudeo]

The ball lands and falls to another element and it kind of teeter totters back and forth and it looks cool :D

[coolknexcreations]

oh

[knexpert#10829476]

Cool!

[knexpert#10829476]

How do you build the teeter todder?

[knexpert#10829476]

Yeah what is this thing?

[The Jamalam]

There is already one of these done by trainman. Just so you know.

[littledudeo]

I know but Im expanding by adding even more :D

[rexdino5]

Hey is that a ping pong table you took pics on?

[littledudeo]

yeahh :D

[coolknexcreations]

What does this do?

[coolknexcreations]

Would you get the picture up soon plz

[rexdino5]

Since if it is your lucky you have a ping pong table because I don't have enough room anywhere in the house. Not even in the garage! It's filled with fishing rods and other junk.

[smilee]

'put chain pathing !

also ferris wheels!
