Sathothy's Guide to Knex Ballmachine Elements/lifts


Welcome to my guide to my new knex ballmachine elements/lifts. In this guide you will find elements that are made by me(and some other elements that arent posted yet and awesome elements that are worth it to post it again).
I will keep editing this guide when i made an new element( witch hoppfully whil happen alot) So remember to check this guide now and then.
Also if you have any name ideas for elements please suggest them( I'm bad with names)
Ball Shute Thingy




The ball rols in this element.
This element is like toeti's element in obligation, but since that element doesnt work whit the newer style balls i decided to make one that works whit the newer style balls.
This one is less costumizaible but you can make nice curves and twists whit it.
Ball Lowerer




.This is an original element by bezempje95 but since he made all his video's private i decided to post it.
Be sure that the ball enters this element whit speed others it won't work.
I used it in my ballmachine fireblast(http://www.youtube.com/user/Sathothy?feature=mhee#p/u/12/cUAxFwb920I)
Micro Knex Ferris Wheel













Its a micro knex ferris wheel!
Micro Knex Mazes











Two mazes i made whit micro knex
Two Ball Ball Arm







This element is originally designed by bezempje95 I only modifieded it. There are two versions of this a big one and a smaller one. The big one was used in armaggedon, and the small one was used in Composition
Flip-flop Path Selector







This isen't an element and it isen't new but it's worth posting it.
I recommend this path selector if you have lots of pieces becuease you don't need lots of hight for it but you do need lots of pieces(mainly snowflakes)
Ball Arms








I used the motorcycle ball arm in armageddon
Two Rail Coaster Path





Its a new way of crostie path. This way there isen't much friction and it goes smooth.
I used this element in armageddon
Sort of Pinwheel Thingy





It looks a bit like the pinwheel
Crostie Stairs




The Ball Replacer







This is the ball replacer as used in my ballmachine Nebulus( https://www.instructables.com/id/Knex-ballmachine-Nebulus/ )
S-drop







A cool element that uses micro track. I used this in Composition.
Micro Pathing




A cool type of micro path, you can use this with all types of different lengths of rods to create cool curves. I used this in Composition.
Down and Up Ball Arm.








The ball enters the upper slot, goes down, rolls out of the upper slot, rolls into the other slots and then it gets raised up again. I used this in Composition
Spinning Shute




The ball enters the shut from above and then it starts spinning. It makes a really cool sound aswell. I used this in Composition.
Motorized Path Radomizer





This is the motorized path randomizer I used on Composition.
Path Selector









Basicly just my spin on some of the other designs like this. I used it on Composition.
Lifts
We are heading to the lifts right now, which I invented on my own.
Micro Knex Wheel Lift










You should be able to make this out of the pictures.
It are 15 cabines
Motorized Madness Ballmachine Lift

I made instructions for this lift right here: https://www.instructables.com/id/Knex-ballmachine-motorized-madness-circle-lift/
Double Car Elevator Lift

















This is the double car elevator lift I used on Composition. I have no idea how to explain it in words but I have a video of it here( the double car lift is shown near the end of the video):
Shifting Wheel Lift








This is the shifting wheel lift I used on Composition, I made instructions for it here: https://www.instructables.com/id/Knex-shifting-wheel-lift-Instructions/
