Description
- Let the good times roll!
- Presenting the Ugears Marble Run Chain Hoist,an exciting combination of art and engineering.
- The Marble Run Chain Hoist is both a beautiful kinetic sculpture and an intricate toy that teaches as it entertains.
- This DIY wooden marble run features a chain hoist powered by a hand crank, and a series of tracks, each with its own unique and fun obstacle or element.
- Turn the handle clockwise to set the machine in motion, and watch as the wooden chain hoist collects and lifts the marbles to the top of the machine, where a 3-way switch distributes them on different tracks.
- One marble plunges down a chute with a loop-the-loop at the bottom; the next tumbles down the various stages of the cascades, while three others are collected in the accumulator then released down one of three short tracks.
- All marbles pass through the common tray or collector before returning to the chain hoist to be lifted on their next journey.
- The Marble Run Chain Hoist is modular, and can be connected to other Marble Run Chain Hoists (2 or 4 models can be connected, in pairs) using special connectors (included).
- Attach two Marble Run Chain Hoists together frontally, or connect four together, both frontally and laterally, for a mini system of hoists and runs.
