it looks like you had a fifth path going but ran out of pieces. i'm not gonna count down for that. it would do nicely if you could add more paths higher up on the towers, great one to mod, anyday. 5/5

to complete the second sentence; if you had more pieces of course!

Too bad you couldn't fit any more paths in. This is a great ball machine. 5*

i probably could have have fit maybe one more path, but i was out of peices
:(

Too bad. Are you making Smool III?

smool (author) in reply to Tornado96Feb 22, 2010. 11:28 AM

Smool III will include some new elements which i have thought of, including a doulbe spiral and maybe a cart if i can think of a way to pull it off :)

and ill work on a faster lift

Very Nice, I like how there is the two towers connected with tracks! 5*

smool (author) in reply to 9VoltWiseManFeb 12, 2010. 8:40 AM

thank you. Thats actullay what i like the best as well. its alos very solid, if u turn one side, the track doesnt warp, the other side turns with it.

I like the paths but that first lift is a little pointless, but don't get me wrong. This is an awesome ball machine but I never say only: nice, or cool becaus that doesn't really help you. Critcism makes the world go round!

smool (author) in reply to Mr. MuggleFeb 8, 2010. 2:03 PM

thanks. I made the first path a last and was almost out of peices. When i started it i was out of yellow and white rods (the two most important)
