Rube Goldberg Ep. 4: The Chebyshev Side Quest ••• This was a side quest because I accidentally spent 2 full days turning this into a standalone kinetic sculpture. I may not even used this in the final sculpture, but once I saw the animation of the linkage, I decided that I had to bring it into the real world. Trying to get all the linkages to move together without interference turned out to be a huge challenge, not to mention connecting a motor to the thing in an aesthetic way. After trying a variety of different gear ratios which didn’t fit that well, I decided to bust out the chain and sprockets from my animated gif project. Love the way it turned out! ••• #linkage #mechanism #mechanical #mechanicalengineering #3dmodeling #3dprinting #engineering #rubegoldberg #kinetic #kineticsculpture
