This marble machine is easy to assemble and disassemble with easy threaded track connectors, which allows for easy assembly and disassembly of the machine without the need for any tools. Overall, these features make this 3D printed marble machine more complex, engaging, yet satisfying to use.

Requirements:

Prints without supports | No screws or metal rods needed
The Magnificent Marble Machine is 100% 3D printed. That's right! No additional hardware such as screws, bolts, etc is needed. Of course, if you want the electric motor powered version, you will need this 60 RPM 12V electic motor and a 12V power source.

You can even opt to use a handle instead of an electric motor. If you choose to print the hand cranked version, the only additional components you'll need to purchase are the 9.5mm ball bearings.


60 RPM 12V electic motor (optional): ~$15 USD
12V power source (optional): ~$6-12 USD
9.5mm ball bearings: $10 USD
