Knex ball machine - project petite.

by ~KGB~

This is my newest ball machine. its got 4 paths and is only about 2ft high. i tried to include as much elements as i could in such a small space. another cool feature is when the bottom 2 base tracks run into each other at the bottom part of the lift, which i have not seen in any other ball machine.

elements...

path changers
skinny pathing
wide pathing
curved skinny pathing
halfpipe
spiral stairs
orange tube drops
ball roll and dropper
little moving parts (mainly on the pathing)

video coming soon.
