There are twenty-nine units in this, one of them has a red rod instead of a blue one.

This is the track on which the ball will travel.

Lower Body Assembly 1

This is the bottom of the lift. Make sure you are right in the spacing of the wheels.

This is a small step. this is for the ball to glide till the lift. Make sure you bend the green flexi as shown in the picture.

Middle Body Assembly 1
