About this model
I've created many "Marblevators" using various lift techniques to lift a marble from the end of the track back to the start of the track. In "Marblevator, Self Reversing Screw Lift", I've designed a "reversing screw mechanism" incorporating twin travelers.

As usual, I probably forgot a file or two or who knows what else, so if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask as I do make plenty of mistakes.
