Knex 'Slider' Ball Lift

This lift is quite like the 'alternator' lift, but at a 45 degree angle. It's also a lot more piece efficient.

It is also easily modified to get higher.

This scaffold will be one blue rod wide. It has lots of red rods holding it up.

Make sure to add dark grey connectors to all of the grey rods.

Once you're finishing building this lift and you've attached it to your machine, you could potentially remove a lot of this scaffold.

This is the bit that slides up and down.

Clip the previous step onto the dark grey connectors on the slope.

This is the part that goes above the slider.

When the slider (Step 2) moves down, this part will prevent the balls from going down too.

Attach each of the blue rods from the roof to the scaffold.

This is where the ball enters the lift.

There are six places to connect the green rods.

This is the crankshaft and the motor.

There are five connections to make.

What if your slider Is jamming?

Put a spacer on any of the red rods like in the pictures.

What if the ball falls off the entrance too early?

See JimOfRedlands' comment below. He has suggested that the red connectors get replaced with green connectors in the entrance.
