This is a miniature version of those arcade machines where you drop a ball and it goes into one of many holes in a wheel. I find these machines infuriating but also fun to play and I don't want to have to spend money to play them so I designed my own to 3D print.
This thing has been updated to version 2.1. There's an easier way to drop the ball, and you can turn the wheel with a finger instead of a crank.
Print at 150% size or higher for best performance. You can print without supports if you want to conserve filament, but if you want it to look nice, supports stop the bottom of the top bars from drooping a bit. I printed without supports and I think it looks fine. You can also add scores for the different holes, like I did.
