Helical Lift Pack

This is a pack for Matrixed Marble Machines that contains models and instructions for creating an extensible helical lift that raises marbles vertically using a small 5v DC motor that can be run off of a USB port or virtually any 5v power supply. Marbles enter the lift at the bottom in any of the 4 cardinal directions and exit the top back in the direction they entered. The motor's RPM are not exact and so this lift is not suitable for making an accurate clock, but it can be used in conjunction with the Articulated Marble Lifter to lengthen marble runs. Additional materials required to build this model include neodymium magnets, bearings and a DC motor. Consult included documentation for an exact bill of materials.
