Perpetual Flip Calendar

Perpetual flip calendars have been around for a while. They seem operate very simply, but I could not for the life of me figure out how! After some digging, I found two US patents as really good references of how this mechanism works:
patents.google.com/patent/US1...
patents.google.com/patent/US1...
It was a little math problem figuring out how to evenly represent 1 through 31 using three different types of wooden tiles. I wanted to do this to be able to see how the tiles flowed through the calendar.
I probably should have made both sides of the calendar with the acrylic windows just to make it look move balanced and symmetrical, but I wanted a "how does this work" side and a "this is how it works" side.
I didn't show it here, but you can count downward if you flip the calendar the opposite way. You can also "reprogram" the calendar to flip the opposite way if you wanted to turn it towards yourself to iterate.
If you have a 3D printer, there are free plans to print one of these for yourself:

No long winded intro, no hokey music, no begging for subs or like. Just a dude showing us what he's working on. THIS is the kind of content I like to see.

@davidschmidt6013 4 года назад

RIGHT!!! All you need is tens of thousands of dollars of equipment, (table saw, planer, joiner, various sanders, hydraulic press-knife, etc), in short: a fully equipped wood-shop, to build a $29.95 Costco item. PS BTW, don't get me wrong...I totally respect this gentleman's skill and craftsmanship, and I LOVED woodshop in HS, even won a few awards. I still make shelves, all types, and I've made bookcases, videocassette shelves, a coffee-station, etc in my home. But I do it with FAR less tools and equipment. Do they look "professionally" made? No. Do they look decent? Yes. Are they serviceable? Absolutely. I guess it comes down to the money one has to invest in hobbies, or in the case of this gentleman, what looks like a professional shop. I'd LOVE to have the tools he has, but I just thought I'd mention the "point of diminishing returns" as a joke.

@MeasuredWorkshop 6 лет назад

I know, I was hoping it wouldn’t come across as a huge middle finger with that tile in there! I just really wanted evenly spaced/distributed colors in there and 15 tiles was the magic number to get me close to displaying 30ish numbers. A lot of the older calendars added a few tiles that say “turn slowly!” and “turn towards you!” to buffer/pad their tiles so they could show an individual 30 and 31 tile. I felt that was more of a cop out though.

@TheRealFOSFOR 6 лет назад

It would probably still be better than the 30/31 solution because now you don't know which day is present. ... But it is still amazing!!!!

@danielrose1392 6 лет назад

You could print the 31 on top. To get from 30 to 1 you make a half turn and to go from 30 to 31 you make a quater turn. Same mechanics with only 15 blocks, but unique labeling.

@larsokland 6 лет назад

Measured Workshop You could put your logo on the back of the piece that would have 31 written on it. Would that solve the 30/31 issue?

@danielrose1392 6 лет назад

Lars it is not possible to have an even number of blocks, 15 which results in 30 numbers or 17 which leaves you with 31 numbers and 3 spare are the options.

To separate "30" and "31" you might use set of 16 cards instead of 15 and number of colors might be 1, 2 or 4. Then you should replace "32" with anything you want e.g. your logo or leave it blank and central bar must be longer twice. To preserve box's length you should use 17 cards =)

You could also use 31 tiles and have two sets of numbers to 31. Then there would be no blanks or doubles. It'd be cool to pack a whole year's worth of tiles in there with correct number of days for each month. If you were crazy, you could pack 4 years worth of tiles in there to compensate for a leap year. You'd need thin tiles and a large box though.

@Abdulla_Izrailyevich_von_Stahl 4 года назад

@@hugeshows Let's be perfectly insane: we should skip 3 leap years each 400 years. If year's number is divisible by 100 but not divisible by 400 then that year is not leap. So our swell 400-years-pack calendar will be as large as a fridge %Ъ)))))
