- inspired by the great marble machine from tulio (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1385312)
- I wanted to create my own marble machine using a pack of 6mm diameter steels balls (airsoft ammunition with the same diameter should work too)
- I wanted to try a different method of elevating the balls/marbles. I created a system where they are pushed into the vertical shaft one by one using a kind of geared wheel
- this pushwheel is connected to a wormgear to have it self-locked and with a high torque to push the tower of balls inside the elevating shaft
- the marble machine is seprated into the base, with the elevating mechanism and the elevating shaft and the marble track itself with the nozzle on top
- It is a modular concept, to be able to have different track options with only one base
- the parts will need a little bit of glue during assembly, but don´t glue track and nozzle if you plan to keep it modular
- I plan to release more track designs in the future
- all parts are de
