This is a pool-ball retrieval system designed for a small 5.5 foot pool table. The system used wooden rods to guide the balls towards a central unit and captures them in a standard part storage container suspended from the table.

The ball size here is 44mm, however I believe it should be possible to simply scale the prints and use larger/smaller rods to modify the system. The only part that would require redesigning is the central unit.

You can see the system in action on my YouTube channel.

I printed it in ABS, which I fully recommend due to the forces exerted by the balls when they drop down.
