Working on a “clock” concept/project/platform with Tom Igoe and Jeff Feddersen. We’ve given ourselves a loose concept (and an even looser deadline) and we’re calling it Clock Club. I’m putting together a quick mechanical prototype for a two handed device.
I’m interested in what will come from this.
I recently made some more Jar Lamps, only this time the bases are made from glued up bourbon barrel staves (parts of the barrel).
Doing some Robot Minions for the birthday girl. I like how they are shaping up.
I made a bud vase from some scrap plywood and a test tube. I really liked how the plys looked after oiling and waxing.
Did some quick wooden pull toy prototypes. All started as dog icons I got from The Noun Project (here, here, and here). Printed them out, spray mounted them to some scrap wood, rough cut them on a scroll saw, drilled the holes, sanded, painted and waxed.
My students turned this amazing scepter. Everyone made a small bit and they all screwed together.
The latest assignment for my class was to make simple pull toys. I think the students did a fantastic job.
Finally framed the laser etched ITP floor plan on reclaimed ITP floorboards. Malkovich Malkovich.
The newest Robot Recipe is up on Make:. And those are cinnamon roasted pineapples, not tater tots.
Wobble Bot was primarily made from a pineapple can, a spice container, and a half sphere food form.
