I wonder if any one has made something like this that takes the ball more then 5 to 10 minutes to get from the start of the track to the end, I mean its neat to see these things, watching the balls go through these neat little mazes and tricks but it all happens in a matter of a minute or less, I'd love to see one that goes though many many , little mazes, many many little elevators many many trap doors and so on, I wonder if there is a world record for the longest, well what ever you call these

@KoutaFG There is a lot of work to get every device that goes into one of these machines. Even the simplest of these can take quite awhile to complete and perfect. That's not to say that I wouldn't want to see it too. I would love to build it myself.

As soon as I clicked on this video, I was like: "OH!! I see how it works now!" This is quite an ingenious ball lifting device.

Wish I could play with your balls. They look so fun!

@KoutaFG a rolling ball clock has balls on the playing field for hours at a time, so in answer to your question yes there are machines that have the balls going for more then 10 mins. My design of clock that I am still planing has many fun tracks, lifters and switches, it even releases a free ball every 30 seconds to keep a viewer entertained and chimes the hour. The hour chime also acts as a lifter to keep the balls in play.
