This is a fun puzzle to solve.  Has several mazes stacked on top of each other. Once one level is completed, the ball falls to the next level. The tricky part is that this should be solved blindly... You shouldn't be able to see the ball, just ear it and feel it as it goes through the maze.  Maps can be used to help the player, however, the maximum difficulty level for this puzzle is to mentally map the maze (no aid) and solve it just by feel, focus and dextrous movements. It can be seen and printed on Thingiverse here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2771165
