How to Make a 3D Kaleidoscope
For me, this video was more about exploring new possibilities and learning about kaleidoscopes.
after a few hours of trial and error I managed to get some pretty exciting results. Soon after I managed to make "3 proof of concept" kaleidoscopes.
This Dodecahedron was my first attempt with first surface mirrors. I could definitely could do a lot better having learned from the process. I learned that it's important to have a high quality glass cutter and to cut the first surface mirror from the back or the "non-coated" side.
Here's a link to my original drawing in pdf format. makebuildmodify.com/images/dod...
Thank for watching!

I got a rear projection TV on Tuesday. Tore it apart and took out the mirror and started cutting out the pieces on Wednesday . I finished it up today (Thursday). The kaleidoscope is awesome. Figuring out the dimensions and how to design the pieces was truly brilliant. Great job! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome stuff. Your camera work was beautiful! I fell down this rabbithole a few years ago. I drove myself crazy with dust. Once you seal a finished kaleidoscope off, a single speck will multiply! But if you don't seal it, the mirrors will quickly turn milky from airborne dust. I made a goofy air filter thing that would attach to the ends, so that I could 'purify' the air with a vacuum cleaner. I eventually gave up, but I did produce a few beauties. Always wanted to film it. One tip: if you do seal off the ends, go to a place that does picture framing, and ask for some scrap "museum glass." It gives crystal clear, reflection-free viewing; expensive stuff, but they will give you scraps if they're cool.
@pocket83
@pocket83 6 лет назад
Oh, another thing: did the top-surface mirror scratch easily? I always figured it would be a pain, but it sure is professional grade.
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 6 лет назад
Thanks for the tip about the museum glass. I haven't sealed mine yet because I couldn't find suitable glass. As for the top-surface mirror, I've been using lens cleaner instead of glass cleaner. I use paper a towel and finish with a cleaning cloth that came with a set of glasses. I haven't seen any scratches from this process. Scratches while cutting is another story. I learned very quickly that you must cut from the back (non-reflective) side. This means that the reflective side must be placed against the work surface. Removing any glass crumbs after each cut is absolutely necessary. I was using a small cordless leaf blower to clear the surface between cuts.

I am thinking about starting off making a small one just for trial with something more along the lines of milar cardstock, just to see if I can figure out the shape on something similar.

Most professional kaleidoscope artists use high quality glass cutters for dry cutting. It needs just a lubrication af the axle from time to time and it lasts for many thousends of cuts - and you don't need to whipe the oil. These types are also used for stained glass beneath the oil cutters. Toyo, Nikken, Mitsoboshi, Bohle are good brands. I use the Bohle Silberschnitt 2000

Such cool results. Is the term "first surface mirror" a description of standard mirrors with the reflective surface on the back of the glass, or a special mirror like that found in a rear projection tv?
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 6 лет назад
First surface mirror has the reflective surface on the front or face of the glass. That way the light doesn't have to go through the glass twice to before it exits the mirror. It's similar to the difference between a regular tv and a high definition tv visually. It's tough to find and buy. But it's free when you reclaim it.

What’s a first surface mirror and why is it important?
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify Год назад
To explain that I need to explain what a SECOND surface mirror is. They are the common type of mirror that is found almost everywhere in households and they have the reflective surface on the back of the mirror. So, you have to look through the glass to see the reflective surface. This means that when a light is shined on the mirror it goes through the glass, reflects off of the reflective surface, then goes back through the glass, and then out. A FIRST surface mirror has the reflective surface on the outside of the mirror (the first surface). So the same light would hit the first surface of the mirror and the light would reflect immediately. First surface mirrors are used for optical applications where having very little degradation in light quality is important. For example: A rear projection TV.

Great video! Do you know how nova kaleidoscopes are made/how they work? Sorry if this is a repeat question. The ones i see are by david sugich
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 5 лет назад
Yes. They carve off the mirrored surface to allow light in through the sides of the kaleidoscope.

if I do half the original size would it work?
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 3 года назад
Yes, I think it sould. Just keep in mind that it's more difficult to build them smaller. This is because there is more accuracy and closer tolerances required.

@@diegoikrotas Novascopes are cool! I think it's done by removing some of the reflective material from the mirror.

That's intensive, if you don't do custom stairs you're missing your calling that would be easy for you technically.

I haven't had a opportunity to build any custom staircases. But my uncle was a master at it.

will just convert the to cm. I didn't know about such 3D kaleidoskope before I came upon your video. I am eager to make it, even if I have never cut glass in my life. Thank you for sharing! Information about this is in web is poor. Just in few sites found out inventors name - Don Doak. Hope I won't ruin every household mirror I have.

Men, I really love the simplicity of the first one. Did you only put the mirrors together? Why theres a circle in the middle of the spectrum? how you get that shitttt? D: it looks so difficult but easy instead.
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 5 лет назад
I glued the mirrors together. The mirrors are from an old rear projection tv.
@sebastiantoro3369
@sebastiantoro3369 5 лет назад
So you scratched the mirrors to get the effect? or its only the natural reflection of the middle triangle? I can use a regular mirror tho?
@Makebuildmodify
@Makebuildmodify 5 лет назад
Sebastian Toro yes it's the natural reflection in the middle. A regular mirror will work but it won't look as nice.
