Ever since Wipe Out, people have been interested in building new lifts for ball machines, so I made this guide!
This will have all of the lifts I've built and other people have built. I will always be updating it as long as I and other people keep on building new lifts. If you want to add your lift(s), just tell me, and I'll add it for you. Please make sure to include a few good pictures of it. This doesn't include screenshots of a video! This guide is technically the official guide to lifts that have pictures, and I would like those pictures to be good quality (not blurry, fuzzy, dark, etc.)
Please tell me if you have any suggestions or feedback for this guide.
Enjoy!

Important:
About the updating problems: I haven't had time to update it, so I let RNB put some of the lifts on. But, he seems inactive now, so I have decided to update the guide myself.
I thought I may say something about pictures for the lifts. I am not going to accept screenshots anymore, because those images are usually blurry/bad quality. So please, if you want your lift/other lifts posted, include good pictures. Also, your lift does not need to have instructions (or even a video) in order to be posted on this guide. But instructions and a video always make it nicer of course. :-)
I'd like to give a shout out to everyone who has been posting comments with new lifts. This helps to update the guide much faster, as I don't have to find the lifts as well as add them. Thanks guys!

Signing UpStep 1Chain Lift
This lift has been around since ball machines began because of the Big Ball Factory. It's an easy lift to build, and doesn't require much pieces. You just don't want the chain too loose or too tight. Adjusting the chain is simple; just add another set of gears somewhere on the back of the tower. Refer to the third picture for an example of that.
If you're wondering what Disco Track is, it's my younger brother's ball machine (he's also a Knexer, his name on 'Ibles is Megatron56).

I thought if I looked at it nearly frame per frame so I could choose the non-blurry moments. It is now just the same as if you made a pic in 420p :P
Raiser lift...
The raiser lift was just a prototype... not a complete lift. No motor means no lifting. And, without an exit track, it would just fall out.
Maybe i'll do it xD
And of course I'll ask first for permissions before rebuilding :P

Also, where's the alternating arm lift?
Added ;-)
But it would be cool. But then there would be too many lifts to choose from. :-P
