I was so excited to receive an email from the Wintergatan team asking if I was interested in contributing some parts to the Marble Machine X. I jumped on the opportunity, of course. The first part they needed were some corner gussets for the lower frame, which was fairly straight forward as they were just parts to be cut on the CNC plasma table. The second part was a bit more complex and I knew would be a little challenging, which was cross bracing rolled to match the radius of the programming drum. It was a little intimidating making these parts and not being able to test fit pieces, since Martin and the Marble Machine live in France. I was just going to have to study the 3D model and be as precise as possible with the dimensions and measurements. I first made a wooden jig on the CNC routing table with the correct radius and cut lines. Next I rolled the 1" square tubing on the ring roller, carefully checking it against the jig as I went. Once the two pieces were rolled, I welded in threads and bolted the X-plate to them, which held it all together. The last step was to break everything down, get it packaged up, and on it's way to France!
