Maze
This is a maze I made some time ago for the grandkids. Not sure what the two types of wood are but they were just cut as segments then glued and turned. It has a 1/8" clear acrylic cover to retain the bearing balls.
It does occupy the kids for a while.And my head I'd be a scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.

Well done like the perspex lid stops little children from swallowing bearings.
May I borrow the idea please?

What size are we talking here.
Are the bearing 1/8 inch or 3/8 inch.
I need some scale.

Hi Fly......the maze is about 260mm diameter and the steel balls are 8 mm diameter..
Crowie....the day I start recording hours spent on a project is the day I give it away. I have no idea how long this took.
The maze was turned and then the openings routed.. the wood is not laminated.And my head I'd be a scratchin'

Cool.
Could occupy an adult for a while, too.
