If you like the project, a stand-alone version will be produced, with standardized plates, and many other course elements, including motorized elements! Let me know by commenting or rating this project!

This project blends creativity, engineering, and maker spirit to turn a PC case into a mesmerizing mechanical playground.

🧩 Concept

This marble run includes over 50 interchangeable modules, all printable in 3D, allowing endless layout possibilities.
Each element can be combined, reversed, or reorganized to create your own custom marble track.

The system fits seamlessly inside the display area of the Qube 540.

✔ Fully Modular System

More than 20 different pieces (and more come)
Strong and easy-to-use snap-fit connectors
Every module is compatible with one another

✔ Large Variety of Modules

Straight and inclined rails
Spirals, vertical drops,
Connectors, junctions...

✔ Easy & Support-Free 3D Printing

Majority parts designed to print without supports
Pre-oriented STLs for fast and clean prints (soon)
Compatible with PLA, PETG, ABS

🎯 Project Goals

Deliver a fun, visual, and dynamic experience directly on a PC case.
Showcase the creative potential of 3D printing applied to PC modding.
Provide a fully modular system offering infinite build possibilities.

🧪 User Experience

Once assembled, the marble moves smoothly through the track, creating a relaxing and eye-catching motion.
Perfect to personalize your PC, spark curiosity, or simply enjoy a small moment of mechanical satisfaction.

⚙ Some explanations

There are several "Fix" and "Default Fix" models. The numbers at the end (0.10 / 0.15 / ...) indicate the tolerance. The lower the number, the less space there will be between the fix and the ball track components. Choose the appropriate tolerance based on your printer's precision.
Most components are available in three different types: open, semi-closed, and closed.
- -Choose the "open" model to have only the bottom of the tube.
- -Choose "close" to have the tube completely enclosed; you won't see the ball pass through it.
- -Choose "semi-close" to have the sensitive areas completely enclosed.

The choice between the open, closed, or semi-closed model depends on the ball's speed as it passes through the component, to prevent it from being ejected from the circuit.
