The Marble Divider Design

(1) The document discusses the design of a marble divider mechanism for a marble machine that plays music. (2) The original design had issues with unreliable height levels that required frequent adjustments over time. (3) Three proposed redesigns are presented: Rossero's simple design eliminates height issues with no extra space needed, Sebastian Kirsch's hook design relies on a height module system but is reliable, and Gonzonator's zigzag design eliminates height issues but takes more space.
