Simple marble run
category: games
A simple marble run to test some designs i'm working on. A fun little toy for all ages.
All joints fit loosely, so the use of some superglue is needed. You'll also need to wax the moving components (offset circles and the arms).
You can find a general assembly video on Youtube: https://youtu.be/441tWKPltiM
And a video showing it in action:

Thanks! I got a 6 step one drawn out, but I still need to see how much height I actually need in my final build :)

I've been able to replicate the problem. My solution was to convert the files to pdf first. Then they worked fine :)
