Thank you. I realize it's not visible in the video or photos but the shade is actually made from thin perforated stainless steel as well. Glad you like it.
Mechanically and visually very nice. Would be interesting to hear how it sounds, but I have a feeling it looks nicer than it sounds 😅 Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
Hard to believe that no one has commented on this adorable automaton. I just discovered your work Robert. I particularly like your one-way bearings and linkage use. I'm a fan. :)
Thanks for this video! 💙 I like this collection of elements - and thank you for the clean shot to view them for a couple minutes. Below are timestamps for the ball drops 😅 I want to watch this segment a bunch of times 😁 2:08 2:11 2:23 2:37 2:49 3:02 3:14 3:27 3:39
G'day mate, I really appreciate you directing me to this video of yours. My goodness it has everything and is probably the most entertaining rbs I have ever seen. Dynamic is the word ! Very well done and thank you.
Beautiful work ! As an armchair expert the only advice I would offer is to decrease the amount of time waiting for the next two balls to commence their run. Lovely piece and video mate, thank you.
Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you appreciate my work. With every sculpture I look for ways to improve. Please have a look at Vezha II. I think that's still my favorite.
Wow totally different concept.. really loved your creativity.. I am from New Zealand and want to buy marble like this,from where I can get it please let me know if possible.
Hello. Thanks for writing. I'm happy you like my work. There are a couple people around the world making these types of sculptures for sale. You can search for Rolling Ball Sculpture. David Morrell is in Australia.
Thanks. I've had people request to hear the sound of the sculpture, so I make sure the video runs longer than the video for who appreciate that. Thanks for watching.
Hi Mike. I'm glad you appreciate my work. Thanks for writing. I see you're working in copper. I'm amazed at how you can solder all those connection, especially on the smaller scale. Good for you!
Hi your work looks great and great video, I’ve just set up the equipment for my first roller ball sculpture. One question is there a rule of thumb for the track width say if your using a 5/8 ball what would the track width be on the out side.
Hi Rob, Thanks. I'm happy you appreciate my work. With narrower rails the ball sits higher and will roll faster and potentially be harder to control or even keep on the track. With wider rails, the ball rolls slower and sits lower, meaning more control and less chance of jumping the track. However, if you're not careful or consistent, the ball may even fall through the track between the rails. In short, you need to find a spacing that you're comfortable with. For my 7/8" marbles, I space the tracks at 7/8", centre to centre (of rails). Thanks for your comment.
@@ObjectsInMotionArt I love science physic, I also building in my garage combat suit - inspired crysis 2 nanosuit. I try recreate this exosceletion, but also love art of science. Have a nice day :)
did you have problems with soldering? Did the half rings fit well or could they fall off in the process? I'm doing the same thing right now and I'm having problems.
Hi. Yes, I sell my sculptures. This sculpture was sold last summer. Please check my website for new sculptures. I have nothing available at the moment but a new one will be ready by the end of May. If you leave me your name and email in the form at the bottom on my website, I'll let you know when it's available. www.objectsinmotion.ca
