SPINNING!

I am working on processing the video from a spinning demo here at New Paltz. Here is what I have so far.



new stuff new stuff

Made some new stuff for objectfetish.com (black coffee stains and cinder blocks)and I got my ponoko order (online laser cutting service). Not too shabby. Kind of smelly (burnt orange felt). I have to say that the pieces are incredibly accurate. I wasn't really expecting that. I will have to assemble them and post some more photos later. I also tried some experimentation with electroforming over some 3D prints. I am not sure how I like them though. My whole plan was electroforming them and then having them gold plated. I like the idea of having a gold version of these things. I don't know why.
