Knex Small Returning Arm Lift

















Greetings!
This is a smaller version martjnb95's returning arm lift. The reason I made it smaller is that for whatever reason I couldn't get the larger version to work properly. Anyway, let's get building! Below is the parts list. All parts are labeled in their classic colors. p.s. Enjoy the video.
Rods
*Tan rods are the length of red rods but are made of harder plastic. You can still build this lift if you don't have them.
*Certain medium gears in this instructable must be gears with teeth or just regular gears. The image notes will explain it better.
