Instructions

Its very simple!

  • I recommend slicing with with Cura: https://ultimaker.com/en/software/list

  • Optimal settings:
    Layer height: 0.1 (0.2 optional for faster print)
    Shell thickness: 0.8
    Bottom/Top thickness: 0.6
    Fill Density: 25%
    Print speed: 40 mm/s
    No Support, brim or raft needed.

  • use 9.5 - 10mm ball-bearings for Marbles

  • And print!

Explanation different download files:

  • R_The_3D_Marble_Machine_2_Final_Model.stl
    Original file. Works the best with given instructions above, which means slicing with Cura.

  • repaird version:
    Fixed version, if your not using cura, or if you're experiencing problems while slicing.

  • The four parts in separate STL files:
    Cap, Turning wheel, Lift, Track

  • and there is a version of the lift (spiral) without the support cilinder around it if you prefer to print it with a brim or a raft
