Philo, these are beautiful! You make it look so easy and I know it is not.
I have struggled with making good reliable ball lifters and you seem to make
them with ease.

Thanks for your kind words, Gus (and all of you who liked my modules)!!!
The most difficult part is getting a reliable feeding mechanism, especially when
the lifting part is narrower...
I got this one right quite easily (the low profile blade easily slides below
the balls but keeps on stirring so there is no jam):
...But I spent hours on this one to get the geometry right. And even now, rarely
I have a ball that engages partially in the output drain and locks the rotating
liftarm. With the worm gear drive, there is enough torque to overcome the lock
but once in a while a ball or two flies across the room...:
Philo
