This marble run is an ‘Engenius Contraption’! Winner of Toy of the Year 2019!

Instantly captivating, this Engenius Contraption is a flat-pack marble run made from plywood that you assemble yourself.

Beautifully laser cut pieces are slotted together to make this fascinating marble run that comes with it’s own motor and will therefore make a perpetual motion.

Powered by an electric motor, the marbles are raised to the top of the lift...first descending down the spiral then down the zig-zag track...then the spiral, then the zig-zag...in a mesmerising perpetual motion.

No glue is required in the whole process – just push the pieces out of the templates and follow the pictures to slot them together. It takes about two hours to make and when complete will have black and white marbles moving smoothly through the mechanism, transfixing everyone who watches.

This is a really clever machine – simple to build and recommended for 7+, they may need help from someone older at times. A great build!
