      For the world tour you need to make some custom colored marbles maybe titanium coated so they can be colored almost any color, put cameras all over all the best parts of the machine and hire Jelle from Jelle's marble runs to commentate the race and possibly Erick from comment etiquette, to ensure the dialogue is eloquent.

    also Wintergatan: "I orchestrated a marble racing event purely as a showcase of all the different parts and how they connect. It also doubles as an experiment to see how the marbles flow, and to cap it off I played 15 different announcers and cut everything perfectly. Oops I improved an entire section along the way.."
