CoreOne Cardboard-Mod [Fun]

Marble run made from cardboard boxes and plastic parts. The boxes are labled "Prusa Core One Assembly Kit"

I am not sure if I did something wrong while assembling: The whole structure feels wobbly and makes strange noises when running.

Pros:

- Good labeling: The products name is clearly visible and the logo looks good!

- Fun: Is fun to use and easy enough so my 3-year-old daughter can use it.

Cons:

- Spacious: Needs a lot of space (but doubles as a home for my daughter).

- Assembly: Was quite messy and instructions often unclear.

 

How did you assemble your cardboard?

I really loved the package design and the assembly (apart from the strange decision to use a million different screws)... So I just couldn't stop building and my daughter was eager to help too 😉

That's awesome! I did use the cardboard for my XL when I got it, but not as good as you did.

When I bought my XL I needed to make an enclosure for it.  The only printer I had big enough to print the parts was my XL.  So I built a temporary enclosure.  Yes, there is an XL inside there, and yes I had to prop the top open because it was getting too hot inside, above 50°C before I propped open the top.

My cat will be so happy in his new spacious castle when the kit gets here!
