Connected Arm Lift, a Knex Ball Machine Lift
Hey everyone!
I present to you the second new lift from my ball machine Euphoria. The first one is here.
The Connected Arm Lift is in my opinion a cool looking lift, with a pretty low piece count.
It works very good, I've never seen a ball fall of the lift.
If you build this lift, read every image note!
I hope you like it and have much fun with building!

Entrance
We will start building the entrance. Here the balls can enter the first arm.
Motor Section
Here we will build the motor section. It contains the motor, the gears and the axle.
Always slide the switch of the motor to the left.

Frame
This is the most boring part from the lift... But it's also very necessary so just build it!
Exit
The exit. Here leave the balls the last arm.
Arms
Now we will build the four arms. They pass the ball to eachother so it can get from the entrance to the exit.
Arm Connections
This is the last part from the lift. They connect the arms and the cranks.
Finished!
Yay! The Connected Arm Lift is complete!
Thanks for building my lift or watching the ible only.
When you've built the lift send me a photo, then I can add it to this step!
I hope you liked it!
See you!
