In the spirit of zany contraptions, pinball, and bubble-gum machines, Alan and
Gill Bridgewater present ten wildly complex marble-action woodworking projects
that are as entertaining to make as they are to play with. Contraptions such
as the Marble Deceleration Honeycomb Maze, Perpetual Random Number Shuffler,
and Marble Rotator Finger-Touch Tumbler Labyrinth can each be constructed
easily in a weekend, but in finished form will baffle those who dare to dally
with them. Step-by-step instructions with accompanying photos and detailed
plans make construction easy. Metric conversions included.
