No kidding, what a waste of time. This was a lot of fun though.

I did a lot of things with brute force. This is a good example. Didn't even clean up! Unpossible:

A little more elegant U-turn. Unfortunately I did not save my earlier designs. I had good luck making vehicles that were hoppers and jerky. They act unpredictably, but can get you there ok.

http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=3449643

I did the 4 balls with a conveyor style too.


http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=3362854

I am amazed how similar folks ideas are. I am also in awe at some of the clean and sophisitcated stuff you guys came up with!

handling - I tried to do it as simply as possible

4 balls - I was hoping for something a little more elegant but it works

U-Turn was too easy

http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=3520262

Now I have to start over and find simpler solutions.
