    Loads have tried, even myself. Few are successful.
    Getting those balls single file is a nightmare.

    Same feedback. Tried using the published 3d models, but they need a good amount of work/redesign IMO.

    However, if you look at one of these below- it’s a pretty simplistic design. Attaching for reference. These should not cost 600USD.

    Self made ball lifter is the white whale of the at home pachinko industry!
