Because it's called Fantastic Contraption. Not Fantastic Ball Drop. That's an entirely different game...

Here is my terribly inelegant solution to big ball.
And for whoever linked this game here, screw you! I've managed like two hours of work in an 8 hour work day and now it's 5:30 and I still have about an hours worth of work and I"M STILL BLOODY PLAYING THIS GAME!!!:P

Sorry for taking so long to reply, it's been nuts here. This is what I did. It doesn't look very 'cool' though, but does get the job done.

Found this game a couple of months ago, and beat it (haven't been back to see if there are new levels) all except for unpossible. Here are my favorite designs:

My very first idea for Unpossible worked! *cough* Of course it took a little while to get the details ironed out (and it could use a bit more power).

I just can't get enough of this game. It's a pretty cool physics-based game, where the goal is to get the target object into the target area by building fantastic contraptions. You have an assortment of rolling wheels and various connectors to get your contraption to do stuff. The easiest and most straightforward way to get your object to the payload is to just build a moving vehicle and carry it there, but some of the level designs require greater creativity.
This game is brilliant. The guy who made this should get some educational award.
I can't post any original solutions that are not covered yet.....I am not a big hero in this...but man is this fun.

What the hell? I suspect you've found some sort of corner case in the model that it doesn't handle properly.

Ever seen the weasel ball toy? This is kind of like that, only with a model that is missing something.
