Tautochrone Track

myminifactory

This homemade experiment proves that a cycloid track can be achieved with basic materials. The test involves rolling a ball along the track, placing it anywhere on the path, and observing how it reaches the bottom in the same amount of time. Sounds impossible? Not quite! With just 12 small disk magnets and 2 springs from a pilot pen, you can create this impressive track. Check out the assembly process video to see it all come together.
