This is a remix of the Cyclone triple lift, triple track marble machine to make it automated using the motor from a Bambu hardware kit (marble run, motor kit, triple axis kit). For the remix, I increased the base height of the Cyclone in order to accommodate for the height of the motor. I removed the inner of the Cyclone and added a shell for the motor to sit in. I edited the spiral of the Cyclone to fit perfectly into the rotating part of the Bambu hardware kit motor. I printed this at .14mm layer height with 15% infill, uses ~380g filament (80 more than the original).
After printing, you will need to remove the brim and supports used for the motor housing. I used default supports to ensure no bridging failed and the motor fit properly into the housing. The default supports are harder to remove than organic, so you may need pliers to remove them. After removal, you can place the motor into the housing as pictured above and use a M3x8 or M3x10 screw to hold the motor in place. You will need to press the motor in firmly to ensure there is no wobble on the marble machine. Slide the spiral into the Cyclone so the triangle is facing the top and spin until the spiral catches the motor. Remove the supports from the included marbles and add them to the machine. Turn the machine on and watch as the Cyclone is operated fully automated.
Uses:
Bambu hardware kit motor
One M3x8 or M3x10 screw
8mm marbles (printable)
