About this model
I was looking for a 3D Printable modular Marble Run set, but I coudn't find one that actually mateched my needs. I wanted it to be able to run unsupervised, so all the systems that use horizontal tracks wouldn't work (e.g. Marble Rush), also Gravitrax has that problem. So I just want a marble run set that can be sloped for every piece of track. So I created Open Marble Run. You can design your own tracks, as long as you obide by two rules: 1. On the interface between tracks, have the semi-circular track surface with a diameter of 25mm. 2. It should have its center 20mm above receptacles for common plastic construction blocks. Within the track you can do whatever you want. I hope to upload some more designs and I encourage you to design your own.
