One thing I've never seen anyone do on these rolling ball sculptures is place little chimes or bells along the tracks for the balls to ring as they go down. If you are really clever you can even make them play a tune. That could be fun to see (and hear) and a distraction to the usual rattling of the metal... Who knows? Great work on this one! Watched all the episodes!
This unlocked a forgotten memory from my childhood! There's a giant Gravitram sculpture by Shab Levy that's been at the Kentucky Science Center since the mid 80s
Congrats! Another creative and well built RBS. I am sure it is not as easy as you make it look...though do appreciate that your build videos do address some of the challenges that you face and always overcome. Maybe someday I'll find out just how tough it is to make one, we'll see.
I love your videos! So cool! I am looking into starting a similar hobby, but with 3d-printed tracks instead of copper tubing. I have a couple questions. What type of soldering iron do you use? It doesn't look like a typical iron is why I ask. My other question is, where do you source the sides of your enclosures? Are they glass? Plastic? Are they from a local shop or amazon? Thanks!
