Your Cart is Empty
Files were just updated on 24th of December and are now better than ever! Happy 3D printing!
You can also purchase Hardware Kit, so you don't have to worry about marbles, motors, etc...
You are buying digital STL files available immediately for download and you will need a 3D printer to print with a minimum bed size of 180x180x180mm. Yes, it can be printed on Prusa Mini by disabling the skirt.
G-codes for Prusa printers are also provided in the files!
You get two base machines, you also need to add a minimum of 1 module to the cart, unless you already have them. All of the modules on our website are interchangeable between all of the machines. You can also get a free marble machine module here.
You are getting two versions. The first is motorized and the second is hand-cranked. You can print just one of them or both if you would like. For the motorized version, you will need a hardware kit and for the hand-cranked version, you will only need the marbles. The kids absolutely love the hand-cranked version, since it is more intractable!
We also sell Fully Assembled Stairs.

Really good base. I took the liberty of ruggedising it in a few places as it’s intended for a 3-year old. There are two protrusions on the base to allow modules to be seated correctly. I accidentally broke one and as such removed the other and screwed it a hex bolt with a head the same diameter as the original protrusions which has worked well. Using what I learnt there I removed protrusions to seat the stairs and screwed in two hex bolts from underneath to anchor the stairs to the base solidly. To make sure the base remained level I screwed in two shorter hex bolts from under the base is the remaining two corners.
The design is very clever and it printed out well. The stairs needed very little sanding and very little cleanup needed on the other parts. I made a test fit of the stairs to the base and both lineup pegs broke off. So I reprinted the base. The line up pegs for the modules also broke off and I drilled out holes and glued in pegs which have worked very well.
had a couple of problems the arm that drives it up and down broke getting it of the plate was never going to be strong enough
and the motor mount broke trying to put the motor in
it is not clear whether I need supports or not but the main design is great
GREAT FIT, WELL DESIGNED
As you can see in the photo I have used different colors and my grandson loves it. I made the manual version for my grandson to interact more
