Just a quick little quarantine project that I thought turned out okay. I went down a rabbit hole of watching some marble run videos over a few days. Since I was staring at my television while watching them, the idea of having the marbles go back and forth over it popped into my head. That expanded into having a coaster around my shelves of figures and other things, so I ordered in a few sets of Gravitrax, and found some automated lifts and other pieces on a couple of Etsy shops.

I had hoped that maybe the vertical piece connectors from Gravitrax would hold the bridge across the gap, but alas they are not designed for that, so I used some Command Strip Shelves to hold them up. Hopefully you enjoy the video.
