made it is super fun to build and not long not anoing not good english xD

anyways ...

sometimes the ball does not lead on the exit track and sometimes the bal fall on the sides of the exit track

i modify the exit track so now im not having the first problem but how do i resolve the second prob ?

ps. Continue like that you are doing great stuff on instructables =P

Should I post this? it seems to normal and boring....

well its not my choise but i have no knex bricks )=

i recommend you to post it

OK, I'll develop it further though as its unstable and not very interesting

every thing in knex is interesting

Lol thank you. I also developed another element however I may wait until I make my next ball machine before I start showcasing more elements
Hmm. So you managed to make it fall onto the track however I don't understand what your second problem is. Also don't worry, your English seems totally fine :D Thank you for your positive comments!

Nice element! ;)
