The scales used in this model make the newton's cradle fairly inefficient, and a recently discovered mistake in the sizing of the ball pegs only made the issue worse (at some point between testing and polishing the 3mf). Due to contest rules I can't take this one down yet, but if you want a functioning version I will be releasing one in the near future so check back!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe perfect desktop accessory to add a little class to your office. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote that this won't have the same performance as one with metal balls, I generally get 3-4 clicks out of it.

I printed this using Sunlu PLA+ so it had a little flex but if you have issues with snapping (possible with plain PLA?), bump the x-y hole compensation up .1mm for the frame parts. The other snaps were designed to fit loosely and shouldn't be an issue. \u003cstrong\u003eUSE A SCRAPER TO REMOVE THE STRINGS\u003c\/strong\u003e.
