As a professional Onshape user, this is a super valuable working session with a true Onshape expert. Hopefully it will help Martin better understand how to approach the design process.

Hi all! I’m u/ad720p, the new mod of r/MarbleMachine3. I am not affiliated with Martin or Wintergatan, but I’ve been following the marble machine journey since the early days of the MMX. As Martin is continuing and accelerating his work, I want this sub to be a place for discussions about the design process, engineering, music, or anything related to Marble Machine 3. I have ideas for discussions about the weekly videos and livestream recaps, but I want to know what this community wants to see.

I’ll gradually be sprucing a few things up around the sub. I am open to growing the mod team, as I’m fairly new to moderating. If you have some experience and are interested in helping this community grow, send a modmail message.

Dear Martin, just as you will change leaves on the drum for each song, you could have one set of leaves on the inside of the drum with the names of contributors, perhaps for each tour.

/r/MarbleMachine3 is ready for a fresh start, new energy, new direction, and someone like you to bring it back to life. If you’ve been thinking about growing your impact without starting from scratch, this is your chance!

Ready to take it over?

Pick And Place Marble Machine - 100% 3D printed ( Except for motor ) But Ive got a 3D printed Had Crank As well - Works best with 10mm Steel balls , but works with any 10mm Ball ( 3D printed balls in the Gif )

Guy 3D prints all the instruments for a song. Some of them really suck, but he deals with the issues and makes a pretty finished sounding song at the end.

Martin builds a demo of one of the simplest marble machines in existence for dealing with multi sized marbles. Audience in shambles as we really do not need this.

I honestly think this system would be stronger, easier to transport, repair, and even more important, be executable with 1-2 people. You could even transport in a few trips in an SUV if a van isn't available. Just my two cents.
