Beamish Exhibition April 2010 - Brian Chaffer's model - 'The Juggler'. It picks up a ball at one side at the bottom and them puts it in the top on the other side and then repeats the process on the other side. Quite intricate and timing is critical to prevent balls falling onto the floor. (10/04/2010)
