This tall desktop Rolling Ball Sculpture is motorized with a chain lift that keeps the action going continuously. There are three tracks, with two track switches taking the balls coming from the lift and splitting them between the three. Track one gets about 50% of the marbles, while tracks two and three each get about 25%.
Track one starts with a tall skinny coil that shoots the ball into a vertical zig-zag. Track two is the loop d’ loop, where the ball exits with enough backspin to slow itself down before continuing along the track.
Track three is the long one. It starts with an adjustable ball-collecting tipping arm that can be set to release with one, two or three marbles. From there, the balls travel through lots of fun dips and curves, another standard tipping arm and a horizontal zig-zag.
All three tracks eventually merge back into one, where the marbles line up for another trip up the chain lift and another ride down the tracks.
100% stainless steel, TIG welded.
