Gantry tower

(1/3) > >>

Baldrocker:
Hi all
Deep in the recesses of my brain I remember seeing on I believe HMEM
pictures of a toy (not really the right word) built by someone that
involved largish steel balls rolling down a slightly  inclined gantry at the top of
 a tower approx 80cm high into a elevator cage which when reaching the base
released the ball and returned to the top for another ball. It would keep
doing this as long as the supply of balls at the gantry lasted.
Would love to make one for my grandson just to show that things do not
HAVE to have batteries to make them work  :bugeye:
No matter how many searches I cannot find it any help muck appreciated.

Merry whatever your persuasion.
