Get all the marbles to the middle. This game is surprisingly harder than it looks! The slick design makes in a nice addition to a home or office.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Carve the wood

Open the project and carve the Workpiece labeled "wood base". Any 1/2 wood or material should work.

Estimated time: 15 minutes

2. Carve the acrylic

Next, go to the Workpiece labeled "acrylic cover". Cut this out of any 1/16" thick acrylic.

Estimated time: 5 minutes

3. Add the bearings

I used 5/32 inch "Diameter Chrome Steel Bearing Balls":https://www.amazon.com/Diameter-Chrome-Steel-Bearing-Bearings/dp/B002BBIOIG for the balls in this game.

Estimated time: 1 minutes

4. Put the acrylic in

I was able to press fit the acrylic into the wood (I used the inlay app to get the measurements right). I didn't use any glue, and the top stays in nicely unless you bang in upside down on a table.

You can glue it if you would like!

Estimated time: 1 minutes

The outer edge and the maze walls are the same height. This will not allow the 1/16" overlay to fit in the channel. It rests on the maze walls.
