The end result will be to turn the wheel 1/8 of a turn each time and dispense one ball so I didn't focus on speed. Try making the hole larger and it should dispense quicker. Which leads me to my next question... Anyone know how to make a motor turn just an 1/8 of 360 degrees with one press of a key? I could do this with a servo, but the servo would want to rotate back the other direction (to center) after the key is released. I haven't played with that part yet. One problem at a time I suppose!

Cool contrivance, I ran the animation and it worked OK. But when I sped it up a little it would drop only one out of seven balls or so.
Thanks for sharing!
