Would it be possible to get a closeup shot of the conveyor, and the linkarm
assembly it feeds into with all those gears?

What I'd really like to know is how you interleaved the linkarms (which look
suspiciously like 3-arm rotor blade pieces) to me) so that they all shift
the marbles across without jamming up.

Do you think this assembly could be adapted to handle soccer balls and
input/output feeds?

Cheers ...

Greetings Steve Hassenplug, Brian Alano and others,

What an incredible idea. I wish I was able to attend so I could
participate.

I wanted to let you know that I posted some updated pictures including a
.avi
video clip (10Mb) of my marble factory as referenced on Brian's GBC Index

I'm looking forward to seeing the final product from brickfest.
