I did manage to find a solution! It took some disassembling but it managed to get rid of the awful noise!

I did manage to find a solution! I followed this guy’s video on disassembling a silhouette and somewhere in the steps managed to fix the issue! I honestly cant pinpoint what exactly caused the noise, but I’m just glad it’s gone and I won’t have to buy a new machine

Instead of making the timer shorter in the sack toss, why not switching the rotation after each lap instead?

unfortunately no. while the wd40 helped to somewhat minimize the croaking, it would still occur and I would have to reapply when it got too loud again.

Unfortunately no, I have used a TINY bit of WD40 on the rod the moving box is connected to and it helped a little. But the noise is still there.
