Spin 'n' Kick! | a K'nex Ball Machine Element
Hello I'm back! Actually, I'm Linkin_J_Knex but I'm back with another K'nex Instructable! I'm extremely sorry for not posting in over a month, I was relatively busy and have recently been working on a new K'nex build with someone (No spoilers here). This month I hope to get two or three Instructables up to make up for it. Anyway, enough apologizing, lets get into the element itself!
So, this is one of my absolute favourite elements. It was featured in my ball machine 3XODUS. I won't brag too much but it is so simple, works 100% of the time, looks good and moves very smoothly. Want to build it? Well here we go! ➡
