Skywards K'nex Ball Lift

This is the first ever ball lift I made.

This ball lift is simple but effective it only take six seconds to go all the way up.

The build time is about 45 minutes to an hour and 15 minutes.

I think the hardness is about the moderate level. I made this one especially because it uses very few non-micro pieces. Here is a video in the ball lift. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel! OK let's get started.

To make the lift you start of with building this.

Now build this.

Now connect them.

Make these.

Now connect them with a yellow rod.

Make four of these now.

Connect them on.

Build this backwards "L" shape part.

Put this on a grey rod in the same order as in the picture

Connect ten chain links nine times and then connect five chains.

Connect them all then repeat what you did just now.

To make the base start of with building this.

Now build four of these.

Now connect only two of them.

Now put two on.

Put the other two on like this.

Make this.

Now add these pieces.

Now build this.

And put them on.

Build this separately.

Now attach it on.

Connect them like this.

Make this.

Now put them on.

Then make these.

And again put them on.

Now put the motor on.

Now for one last bottom part. Make as shown in the pictures and put them on a red rod.

Now put it on the bottom part

Remember to attach the backwards "L" shaped piece on like this.

Now put the chain on as instructed in the pictures.

Remember to put the lifting arm on the chain like this.

You always want to turn the motor on the right way if you don't there is a big chance of it falling apart. The right way is to move the switch to the downwards pointing arrow.

If the lifting arm accidentally hooks on any pieces like this then move the lifting arm the other way as shown in the picture.

All you have to do is shown in the pictures. Once you did that turn the motor on the right way.
