Buying marbles:
DON'T buy them by the bag! I found mine at a discount warehouse that sells them in bulk. Check around those hole-in-the-wall surplus stores, especially where craft stuff, wedding décor, and fake flowers are sold. Good luck.

If you enjoyed this, *check out the second-channel video:* ►ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_ncNHmc3kAw.html There was way too much here for just one! Have a great weekend ;)

@shadowboyii 6 лет назад

it's not often that I say this on the internet but thanks I really enjoy your work keep it up and again thanks

@bringamosa8480 6 лет назад

May I be free and ask why a second channel? Could be on this one too just as informative in my opinion :)

@xtozlabs8440 6 лет назад

You seemed to have a lot of fun doing this. If you haven't already, you may want to check out atomic crystal packing lattice structures. Some of the geometries are as beautiful as they are intricate. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure#Classification_by_symmetry Careful, Its a rabbit hole one could easily get lost in ; )

@user-cq8kc5es9b 6 лет назад

pocket83 once again great project and beautiful result, so much information and tips like a lecture on geometry and material science, thank you for sharing this!

Rubik's bricks (edge connections), PVC hex board (tiling and glue method!), Copper and ornaments (metal bending and soldering), Building block medley (meaningful linkage distance), Four-piece tetrahedral cannonball puzzle (angle math, puzzle pieces, first epoxy method!), Geodesic sphere puzzle (benefits of elastic puzzle pieces), Platonic solid wireframes (math, jigging/rigging, soldering!), Build of a Flexi (cube) puzzle (piece management, benefits/beauty of similar puzzle pieces), Marble size sorting (material selection, tool construction), Epoxy casting with BBs (well, here we are.. The forerunner to epoxy mastery) 8 years of video's man.. You built up to this video for 8 years. That's dedication.

So worth it

@SteveRamsey 6 лет назад

These are stunning. Amazing process and very engaging video! Beautiful.

@pocket83 6 лет назад

Thanks, Steve. I appreciate the compliment! I'm kinda proud of these two. Hey, I gave you a (very) brief nod on the second video. Watch it if you get the time.

@YooPico 6 лет назад

It's past midnight and I just spent 20 mins watching a guy gluing marbles together...don't regret a second! There's something oddly calming about your voice. The only ASMR I would watch are these videos.

@daneekaplan4284 6 лет назад

What a great project. Part math, part science, part craft project= maker perfection with a big dash of ZEN. But WHY did you not make a clear version? A clear marble octahedron would be stunning, something I would put on my coffee table. Ok, I get it, it's just a personal preference thing and all that, but the light would shine through it so beautifully. Anyway- there is something so beautiful. as you pointed out, about those welds that look molten. This is a great project and as always you do such an incredible job teaching difficult concepts. You are an excellent teacher- great communication skills and the way you go about showing multiple methods for reaching the same end result is very effective. Ok, enough about you.

@pocket83 6 лет назад

By all means, continue showering me with praise! Seriously though, thank you. Simply put, I just couldn't find clear marbles. I leave that to you ;)

@ShyamSundarY 6 лет назад

Something about marbles is so therapeutic ! Including the sound of them hitting each other. I felt like a child once again. Thanks a bunch for this video !

@ashtonfitzgerald 6 лет назад

This technique would lend itself quite well to some very interesting 3D marble puzzles. Going to have to take a go myself! Thanks for the great vid.

@pocket83 6 лет назад

Thank you! Here's one to get you started: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q4CnL7VdR8o.html

@poopcxck 6 лет назад

Would be neat to do this with all clear marbles and hook up some sort of RGB to the stand. Great video, Pocket.

@Cadwaladr 6 лет назад

Reminded me of my favourite sphere-stacking formula: ρ=τ/√72 where rho is the density of the spheres and tau is just there to annoy Matt Parker.

@Robzter117 6 лет назад

I think this is the video where they talk about that formula: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3inLMXcetUA.html

@seanc215 6 лет назад

This is your best video, on many levels. Cinematography, math, design ... you’ve nailed it all. It’s not even my favorite of your projects. But damn ... it’s so so good.

@garbageperson1766 6 лет назад

I found this video completely by accident cause I was struggling with the sum formula and you just explained in two minutes what my math teacher took an hour to explain and I actually understand it. this is sorcery

@Nono-hk3is 6 лет назад

Your demonstrations of techniques and the relevant physical processes are extremely good.

@CheveeDodd 6 лет назад

The amount of effort you put into these projects is inspiring. Not only the end product, but the effort to simplify the process and make it accessible to anyone.

I was actually just going back through infinite series to brush up. This vid was dropped at the perfect time. Now i feel the need to go look into crystal structures again. These builds are oddly satisfying.

@thenextstepp 6 лет назад

I was just watching some of your older videos when I got this in my recommended section. I was actually thinking about fusing marbles like this to create one of those pyramid puzzles for my kids.

@taleandclawrock2606 6 лет назад

I love all the sciencey bits...3 kinds of size sorting set ups for the marbles, im. impressed.

@jcmakes5977 6 лет назад

Does not disappoint as usual. Very cool build! So much time and patience on this.

@Nrwn-Qsr 6 лет назад

Awesome! I was somewhat amazed at how well the epoxy flowed into the contact points and stayed there. I wouldn't have guessed they could be that clean and neat, I'd have expected a lot of scraping and cleanup... It was like a well soldered joint, when the solder just flows in perfectly, no drips, no mess. Excellent as always! As a side thought, you should look into sharing your musings, ideas, etc. on Steemit. Ya may be a great fit there, and ya could earn a few (or more) bucks as well.

@pocket83 6 лет назад

It is *SO* much like soldering, isn't it? That's why I titled it epoxy-soldering. Give it a try- the joints are also surprisingly strong. I don't know what Steemit is, but I'll search it when I get a moment.

@Nrwn-Qsr 6 лет назад

TBH, I didn't even notice the "epoxy-solder" in the title...I see Pocket videos and I just click. When I went to your second video, I realized the majority of my comment here was just rehashing what you'd already stated. As for Steemit, I'm just really starting to look into it myself, so I'd probably do a poor job explaining it, but I think it could be really good for a thoughtful, insightful, creative content creator like yourself, and may consume less time than making and editing these 20+min. videos and potentially a better monetary reward for ya. I've got no skin in the game there, so this really is just me sharing something I find potentially helpful for someone like yourself. Cheers!

@nitsuj00 6 лет назад

Good job, really liking your resin and marble vids man

@Briguy1027 6 лет назад

entrancing . . . and the ending with the two shapes was neat. I could see you making a bunch of different shapes and just have them lying around for people to combine in various ways.

@goinnewoods5314 6 лет назад

This video was really interesting, and fun to watch. It's interesting to see how different people approach things differently. You took a mathematical approach, while if someone told me to make a geometric shape like this...I'd probably just sit down with the marbles and work it out piece by piece, fitting them together until they were the shape I wanted. No math involved, just hands on experimenting, and fitting marbles together like a puzzle. Neither way is wrong, and that's what cool about getting to see how someone tackles a project like this.

@raymondsalazar4562 6 лет назад

Ok Seriously... I was randomly watching this vijeo and I gotta say. Your presentation was ideal for my particular attention span/type. Interested from start to finish.. Then, after it was over. You jaw-dropped me. I've seen it on paper. Full comprehension. However your simple nonchalant lattice shift, at the end.... It was just so "here, look. See?".... Bravo. Subscribed. Keep it up. Onto more of your vids.
