I cut off a piece of PVC pipe.

Then I drilled holes for marbles and a hole for a bearing.

Holes for the marbles should be smaller than the marble's diameter.

I also trimmed the pipe to desired shape and drilled decorative holes.

I inserted the marbles and half-closed the ends.

Make sure that the marbles turn freely (unless you don't want them to)
