Nocturnal- a Knex Ball Machine

Here it is, Nocturnal, my tenth ball machine! I thought that Regent was my tenth but then I realized that I had miscounted. 1 lift, 5 paths, and about 2500 pieces. Music composed by me via noteflight.com. The stars all over the machine are just for the nighttime theme. Link to video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bUveK5xsUY

noc·tur·nal
näkˈtərnl/ adjective

done, occurring, or active at night.

This is the first machine that I have done a white floor that all of the paths congregate to. The lift is a chain lift with 2 exits, so it basically functions as a path selector. all of the other selectors are of the classic vertical variety.

Path 1 is just a chain drop, and then some pathing back to the floor.

Path 2 consists of first, some panel pathing by www139/William Green/Green Connector, two brothers that are my favorite BM builders ever even though they change their name so much. After that, the ball waits for a ball from path 3 to release it with my flower waiter element, whose video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TB7GjyIt0ME Then, the ball does a 180, spins a spinner, then finally some 1 slot connector pathing back to the white floor.

Path 3 first goes on a tire arm, then releases the waiting ball from path 2.

Path 4 is mostly motorized madness track.

Path 5 is first some curved Yellow connector pathing, then a big arm onto some blue connector pathing.
