Making a Miniature Marble Machine!

  • In this video I'm using a ball bearing of only 5mm wide. The track is made of 0.6mm wire. It took me waaaay longer to construct than anticipated, because a small mistake and the ball wouldn't stay on the track.
    I made this tiny marble track to celebrate that I reached 40K subs! Hope you like it! Next video will be a tutorial on special elements for the normal sized balls :)
    It would be super exciting to see your creations! So please share them with me on instagram / daniel_de_bruin

      Hi
      Much love from Australia 🇦🇺.
      Could you try making a marble run using just paper clips? (Apart from the ball)
      I think that would be a fun challenge.

      a faster motor and more balls would be awesome. And maybe a new design for 3 arms to lift the balls, cause I would like to see an avalanche of balls falling through the bearing!!!
