GBC Module - Scissors Lift

[LegoGBC]

My very own GBC module

It uses a single M Motor to elevate (and lower) the platform.

There is a small 'gate' on the platform blocking the balls from falling until the platform reaches its highest point.

There is another gate on the ball input to make sure the balls dont fall to the ground,only to the platform.

The platform can carry about 5 balls at once.

Here is the video

Thanks for watching

Awesome work, very smooth movement and operation perhaps a bigger hold for the balls at the start, so you don't have to keep feeding them in constantly?

I agree,but this will be a part of a loop so I didn't want to make such a big holder

Apart from the weird colors, I like it.

I Don't have enough LEGO to make the whole module be the same color

(I only have the 8043 from Technic so only yellow & dark grey technic,and all the yellow bricks are used in another module,so I had to use something else that I have enough of)
