Here we are. My 4th knex ball machine. It has a total of 9.2 paths, 7 new elements, about 50' of track, and 4 lifts, including Shadowman39's double helix lift. It took me about 3 months to build and edit it. Enjoy the video.

What is that motor on slide 4?
KneXtreme (author) in reply to Lego AndrewJan 12, 2012. 6:47 AM
It's a duel powered motor. I bought a set off of ebay that came with it, but the buttons to control it were garbage. So I hooked up a A/C adaptor to it.

Ha, yeh

Does the hammer lift gain quite alot of height for the balls? could you tell me about it, im probably gonna build a ball machine soon so please explain.

Or do you know any good lifts which get 2-3 ft of height which dont take many pieces? Thanx

Anyway. GR8 Ball machine 5*

that would be awesome!
MegaMetal8 in reply to martijnb95Aug 24, 2011. 2:05 AM
What would?
martijnb95 in reply to MegaMetal8Aug 24, 2011. 3:20 AM
A ball machine made by you :-)
MegaMetal8 in reply to martijnb95Aug 25, 2011. 2:03 AM
Yeh dude, thanks. If you sub (or are) when its realeased you'll see it.

The hammer lift failed so im using a chain lift and maybe a custom lift by me if it works
martijnb95 in reply to MegaMetal8Aug 25, 2011. 2:35 AM
Cool

To tell you the truth I'm not quite sure how high it can hit a ball. I will be testing that after Bromine is down. But I'm pretty sure the more weight you add the higher it will go. I actually had to take some weight off. It was so powerful it hit it up past the first arm lift and almost to the other one. Probably a lift that wouldn't take up much pieces would ether be a chain lift or some type of arm lift.

Ok thanks
