The Corkscrew | a K'nex Ball Machine Lift

IMG_20160206_101217469.jpg

Hello! I'm back with another K'nex creation, this time it's a lift! It was featured in 3XODUS and was the second lift. It has taken me so long to get round to doing this because I have had to neaten it up and make it work reliably. (And procrastination got in the way a bit...) Anyway, you want to build it? Well, let's go!
