-* Music had to be replaced sorry you do not get to enjoy the original sound track*- This tower stands at 8 feet tall, 7 feet long and 2 feet wide. There are 10 unique paths down. 3 paths are connected to other paths so that element does not execute until another ball arrives. The highlight of the tower is the spinning orb in the middle of the tower which allows for three different random paths...

PLEASE READ: This was my very first kne'x set I ever built many years ago when it was a Big Ball Factory. As I got more sets I slowly transformed my tower into what it is today. As you can see, I kept the primary base the Big Ball Factory. When I left for the dorms, I took town part of this set so I could have more pieces to work with. Since I was home this last summer, I decided to rebuild thi...

Music replaced 10-29-10 A K'nex contraption built in a dorm room featuring a circular lift system. While it may seem that this year's K'nex tower is smaller than last year's, it actually uses about the same amount of parts. I have only four of the blue beams left. Hopefully I can get some more parts for next time to build a larger and more intense tower. Hope you enjoy.

    This is probably easily one of the top 3 best ball machines ever and it in my opinion, it's Number One. I contains a lot of coaster tracking, a lot of tubing so there were loops, ramps, coils, waves, banking, jumping... and a lot of neat spinning elements. Also since you were using the 12V Motor from 90's models, it was a success to have three moving parts running off that one motor. Very impressive machine. My favorite part was at 4:02 with The Elliptica Element. Very clever. This was well constructed, you are a great builder and it will always be my favorite KNEX Ball Machine.

    I spy quite a few parts from the Big Ball Factory... I've got one of those set up as a permanent installation in my dorm room right now ;D I plan on bringing up a lot of my other knex from home to expand it with a few more switches at the top, you gave me a bunch of good ideas! I love the "tossers"!

    I noticed the elements from the K'nex big ball factory. We had that one too but the ramp on it never worked =\ This is amazing though. you should sell kits and instructions on how to make one of these things. It's just downright beast! Favourited and subbed
