Thank you! Your video came in handy. I used a similar method for an outdoor labyrinth 5 years ago, and this time I used tape on a gym floor. I also made my own tape dispenser! Modified a normal packaging tape dispenser from Ace Hardware ($13.00), added an old hockey stick and voila!
Yaayy! I'm so excited to have found your channel! As an artist, currently renting part of a out of use church as my workspace, I'm thinking of creating a labyrinth in the space where services were held. This helps a lot for preparing this plan! (This one, and the 5 circuit Chartres style how to vid). Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Lars, for this informative and inspiring lecture on labyrinths. It is a great place for anyone with questions about labyrinths to begin to find the answers. I especially appreciated the story of your personal journey woven into becoming a top notch labyrinth builder. It articulates how labyrinths can heal, guide and reflect back to us that which we need to learn along the path of life. ~ Lauren Artress
Just discovered this and I’m creating a labyrinth with solar lights, do you know more or less the length of the tape roll so I can guesstimate how long strands I need? I realize it’s a longshot since it’s an older video but here’s my fingers crossing 🤞🏼
This is amazing. I would like to create such a labyrinth for my upcoming exhibiton as it takes place on the world labyrinth day. The Stick you used - what is it called? Did you create it by yourself or can I buy it via Amazon? Thank you for sharing this video!
It's called a tape runner and I used to buy them from ToolLab, but haven't seen them available recently. I saw one on Zipup.com called a Floorboard Tape Dispenser, but haven't purchased one from them yet
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I am currently creating a labyrinth art installation, and have found this video very helpful. I am wondering if you have attached the tape runner to something and if so what you recommend using? Thanks in advance!
I was given my tape roller by my mentor Robert Ferre who created it by fastening a painter's pole to a hand tape roller. His website has instructions about how to do this: labyrinth-enterprises.com/tapemachine.html You can also buy a ready-made one and there are several on Amazon, but the best I have found and used is the Tape Runner from ToolLab. It works great but unfortunately the shipping cost can be almost as much as the roller! www.toollab.com/tape-runner-3-wide-floor-tape-dispenser/
@@simplygrace5967 low residue masking tape. The most popular is blue painter's tape, but there are other colors too depending on the store. Each tape has a rating of how long it can last without leaving residue. Low residue is also generally weaker, so also less likely to damage sensitive floors. But the weaker the tape, the harder it has holding the tight turns and may not stick well depending on the surface.
@@DiscoverLabyrinths Hi again, thank you for this. I am wondering if you might be able to send me a link to the ready made tape roller on Amazon, as I wasn’t able to find it. If you also have a link for the tape, that would be very helpful. Thank you in advance 😃
I've been looking at gym floor tape applicators but I haven't found one that looks as easy to maneuver as the one you're using. What brand and model is yours? Thanks!

It is pretty easy to make a real labyrinth. This isn't really correct, but still turns out almost like a labyrinth. Good enough, but seriously...a little studying and you can see how easy it is to make a real one instead of this one.
This is a real labyrinth. It's actually a 3-Circuit classical with a spiral center called a ChakraVyuha. If by real, you mean the 7-Circuit classical, that is the oldest forms but there are lots of variations on labyrinths
