Here's a set of plans I worked up for a gumball machine similar to one I saw on my travels on the web. It should work for gumballs, jellybeans, jawbreakers or other candy up to 1/2" diameter. The plans are a 7 page PDF file (5.2Mb) and can be downloaded HERE if you wish.

Tom,

Awesome Job! I really like your Sketchup stuff!

Now, how about one that takes coins???

Keep the great work up, and keep posting!

Oh, I tried to download the plans and it seems it just hang.
Any idea?

TOM: I have no idea where you find these things but keep up the good work. I will be busy and in the good graces of my grandkids for the foreseeable future.

I don't know that there's a specific size, just make the hole into a kinda "funnel" to help the gumball get started.
