Wiest Marble Machine #4. Completed!

This marble machine is lit with color changing LED lights (it 's not your monitor) and uses Eryone tri-color Silk PLA Silk in Red,Yellow and Blue for the filament. This is my fourth marble machine. The first was made of wood long ago, and has since been destroyed (accidentally). The remaining Machines have been designed on a computer using Fusion 360, then printed with a 3d printer. I am currently using a Bambu X1-C printer. (highly recommended)

This is the 8th video showing my progress on the making of Wiest Marble machine #4. It's almost done, one more video for this Machine. Just need to add some fine tuning bits to guide misbehaving ball bearings.

This is the 5th feature too be added to the #4 Marble Machine. I wanted something a little different than regular straight track. All features are designed using Fusion 360.

Wiest Marble Macine #4, Loop-de-loop

Просмотров 3529 месяцев назад

This is the 4th video in a series, showing my progress in creating my 4th Marble machine. This is the second Loop-De-Loop I've created. The first one had difficulty keeping the bearing in the track. With this design, I've used a track that the bearing can't fall out of. It also has a higher velocity to make sure the bearing makes it all the way to the end.

Switch track addition

I decided I wanted more routes down for adding features, so here are 2 additional switch tracks for a total or 6 routes now.

Once the lifting mechanism was finished, it was time to divert the bearings off into 4 different locations. Now I have to figure out what to do with the 4 different runs.

Lift Mechanism for Marble Machine #4

Просмотров 2,2 тыс.9 месяцев назад

New design for a lift mechanism, still using magnets though. This one is the second prototype. The first one had too much play in the gears resulting in them not being able to spin for the entire height. For this one I made the recess behind the gear for the lock nut tighter, and superglued the nuts in place. I don't think it would work if I had made it taller

This is the 3rd marble machine I've made (second 3D printed). The goals for this one were to have zero falling (dropped) bearings, to use a single loop of ball chain (cutting and splicing them isn't fun), and to add a musical component (my wife's request). All goals successfully achieved. Became very frustrated with poor print quality and was going to give up 75% through. I decided to buy a Bam...

Making progress on Marble roll #3. This video shows the working of what I refer to as the "Ball gate" I learned on my previous marble roll that the Neodymium magnets picking up the ball bearings, would pick up 2, then drop 1. This device separates the balls to be picked up from the balls in the queue. Notice how both the cam and the connecting rod have various holes. I wasn't sure what dimensio...
