How the marble maze was designed in Tinkercad
I started with a 19mm cube, and tapered each edge. I assembled all 27 cubes into a 3x3 cube and set to the side.
I designed the holes and tunnels with cylinders and spheres, rotating appropriately to make 90' turns, straightaways, and T intersections.
I grouped all the tunnels together, then aligned them with the 3x3x3 cube
