Title: Rolling ball sculpture....I want one
Post by: Ant on January 28, 2013, 12:07:53 AM
I want to get one of these rolling ball sculptuers  but my wife said they are too loud and thats just from watching the  youtube clips.
#22 is ^^^ . I haven't watched them all yet, so if there are any others that a good let me know. http://www.rollingballsculpture.com.au/index.cfm

I wonder if this guy would make some cool ramps for pinball mods &&

That is really cool. I can imagine him as a ramp designer. Something very special about wire form ramps that the plastics just don't get.
Definitely worth a look at the video - MESMERIZING  :D

Best 2:35 Seconds I've spent on Youtube in a long time. That is simply amazing. I remember as a kid there was this British TV show where they had MASSIVE Kinetic setups - I can't recall the name of the show - and I used to love watching the ball go around the set.

I think Pinprick (AP Member) has a cool setup at his place - along his walls.

Looks great reckon I could convince the wife into one of these as we have a lot of artwork, but bet they are quite expensive. Looks like a lot of thought and work goes into these

Yeah, Pinprick has a really cool one and is adding and thinking about it all the time. Hopefully he see's this thread and posts an update of his.

Yeah, when I make some more progress on phase II of the Pinball Kinetic I'll post up new pics.
Not much has happened since I tunelled 2 holes through to the next room to feed the "Addams Family Values" vertical pinball kinetic table.
