Hi friend! Today, I'm showing off the completed The Maracini Express Whirligig. I also show how the right arm of the train engineer is being moved, and I talk about how I had to change the mechanism that makes the smoke go up and down; the new mechanism works a lot better because the smoke now spins as well as going up and down.
It's been an incredible journey making this whirligig, and I sure had me some fun along the way. Thanks Maracini for having the courage to dream, and for letting me be part of your dream.
Music is Fractal of Light, Cattleshire, and Hulu Ukulele all by Chris Haugen.
Thanks for stopping by. Many warm greetings from Wishram.
Todd

This is so special for me and eddy.. it has everything he and me love.. the mountains 🏔 and Mystical magical 🧙🏻‍♀️stories about the ancient creatures that used to live in the mountains, we love water. This is our trophy 🏆 for 2022 the finding of our apartment by the train station 🚉. Thank you Todd for making this for me and changing my view of the world .

Hi Maracini! Thank you. It's special for me too and I cried a bunch of times while I edited the video this morning. I'm so grateful to have had this experience, which is all your doing; thank you again! You are most welcome my dear teacher. I hope you gets many years of enjoyment for the whirligig. I'm getting ready to go to the store and buy packing materials this afternoon, so hopefully, we can get the whirligig sent to you soon. Stay awesome!

@maraspeakwiks9872 2 года назад

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi Maracini! This comment got filtered too; sorry. A truck whirligig would be awesome. I bet you'll be a good mother trucker. I'll think about a truck whirligig. Take care.

They are so joyful to watch the wind blow them. Rhythm in motion

You’ve outdone yourself Todd. I can’t wait to se what the next build will be, maybe a whirligig which you can generate power for your house! 🙂

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi John! Thank you. Yeah, I've been think a lot about putting some whirligigs to work for real and start generating some power. You can use old treadmilll motors or any DC motor. No sense sending more money to the P.U.D. than I have to. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you and yours are safe and well. Stay awesome!

That is definitely some very impressive work Todd. Getting all the features to function as intended can really keep you busy at first on a new whirligig I bet. Thanks for sharing and take care my friend

Hi Lloyd! Thank you. Yeah, it takes a bit of tinkiering to get everything working together. Good thing I like tinkering! Thanks for stopping by. Stay awesome!

Absolutely Fantastical Todd. I always love how your faces turn out they always are so happy and interesting like they have a big secret to tell you. I am taking a tinkering workshop with the Caberet Mechanical Theatre in May I’m excited to tell you all about it. Thank you for the lovely video and please give Peaches a big hug for me

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi Deb! Thank you. The secret is, "I'm glad you're here!" The workshop sounds fantastical. You will have to teach us what you learn. You are most welcome. Thanks for stopping by and for all your support. Peaches is eating a piece of oatmeal cookie at the moment, but I heard her mumble hiiii!!!!! Stay legendary!

Love how the new lantern looks like lucky 🍀 gem 💎 stone

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi Maracini! I think it looks delicious like a big jelly bean, but it could be a gem too. I went and got some packing supplies, so I'm getting ready to see if I can get it all in a box. I was also thinking I could deliver it; it's only 16 hours to L.A.!

@maraspeakwiks9872 2 года назад

@@ToddAndrewCole Hi Todd 16 hours is a long ride! But if you want to come to LA sure! I’ll talk to eddy and maybe 🤔 we can meet you half way. I will let you know 😃. we’d love to meet you.

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Sorry I didn't see this comment because it got filtered as spam for some reason. That would be fun to meet up. We'll have to do it sometime. Best regards.

Job Well Done! I like the way you worked out the smoke movement with the 50 cent piece, innovative :)

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi Bill! Thank you. Yeah, Ilike the 50 cent piece too and how it all worked out. It got down to 15 here this morning. I hope you are staying safe and warm. Stay awesome!

@@ToddAndrewCole Hey Todd. A brisk 5 degrees here this AM. Probably won't be going anywhere today!

@cindymcmeekin2757 2 года назад

Well done! The detail work is amazing. The driver has the most beautiful teeth ! Who is his dentist? A lot of moving parts what part of the country is this going to? Hope they have lots of wind.

@lynnstillwell2 2 года назад

I love the timing of the music with the action at 05:00! Was that intentional? -- The whole thing is just amazing! "Amazing" is really an inadequate adjective. 😊

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi Lynn! I think that was a little serendipity with the music. It's been an amazing experience making this whirligig. Thanks for stopping by. Wishing you all the best.

@lugdan 2 года назад

That is some complex animation - excellent work! So why add baking soda to super glue? Does it make it taste better?

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi Bob! Thank you. The baking soda acts as a binder for the super glue, like sand in grout. Not sure about the taste; you'll have to experiment and report back to me. Thanks for stopping by. Wishing you all the best.

@cindymcmeekin2757 2 года назад

Well done!!! How long did it take you to make?

@ToddAndrewCole 2 года назад

Hi Cindy! Thank you. I think I started working on it in the middle of December, so it's been around 9 weeks.
