What if you places the shorter lengths onto the longer length creating a triangle. One on each side. Then connect a rod between the two shorter lengts but with the wheel sandwiched between them.
I have a little rowboat guy with balls at the end of his oars. Rocks back and forth but eventually the balls gather a bit of rotational momentum and spins the rower 180⁰. Then back again several seconds later
www.grand-illusions.com/chaos-pendulum-kit-c2x40441169 When Tim shows a variety of toys in a video, they will be items from his collection, and are not for sale. When we show a single item, it is sometimes available to buy from our web site. As in this case.
Fun fact: this is called a "chaos pendulum" because its a classic example of a chaotic system. Chaos, in the mathematical sense, does not mean randomness. If you drop the exact same pendulum from the exact same spot, it will swing the exact same way, every time. What makes the system chaotic is that changing the initial conditions, dropping the pendulum from an ever so slightly different position, results in a completely different movement pattern. Its predictable and unpredictable at the same time.
I'm sure it could be constructed in a way to demonstrate the three planet problem (re plotting their orbits). Two is easy (for these clever clogs), but three is renowned to be near impossible (if not actually impossible!). If you want to scare an astrophysicist, ask them the answer to it lol.
Tim, keep doing what you do, you absolute legend.
The man and his presentations are a treasure.
And watching it is like a prize
Hi Tim, every time I'm sad, I come to watch your videos, and they make me happy. Thank you 😊
No one really cares who's first, all we care is how cool this pendulum is
First!
Agreed

@@F1R3_Fan MOTHER-LOVER! My mommy is the best....She's my first!
@@wizardjunkie you have a point
"Ahhh! A chaotic pendulum. Or a chaos pendulum!"
Does anyone know where these pendulums can be bought?

What a lovely piece of kinetic art.
There might b a SLIM CHANCE to make MORE THAN 4 different configurations w/ those pieces....
Guys, that outro music is AWESOME.
Weird and whimsical and upbeat!
Strangely, but not surprisingly, this what exactly what I needed to see today. Cheers!
What a lovely idea.
Bit like my life at the moment 😂😂
Pro tip: get rid of your dog.

Thanks Tim.
What a wonderfully interesting desk toy,tim!
It reminds me of a video I once saw in which they build a machine that could balance a pendulum made of three segments
I want one. 😫
Fascinante
Nice
I could almost understand a few words this old man was mumbling
Wait, only the first configuration uses the circle?
My pendulum works in a limited direction.😂
maybe you must start with all elements in the upmost position so maximum height energy will be in the system
I have a mighty need.
keep up the great videos.

Chaos Pendulum would be such a cool band bame.
This was nice
There's got to be more than 4 combinations.. I'd just put the whole lot on there at random and see what happens

Where may I buy this???

My suggestion to the inventor is he makes a compartment in the base to hold all the spare pieces that aren't in use.

Too bad you couldn’t demonstrate more than one.
"Chaotic dance" xD That's me in da club after a couple of shots
I love this
Love what you do Tim. Always nice to see these little trinkets now and again.
Men walk around with these in their pants.
Bought

I bet cats would like that 😺
Great job 👍
👀👀👀
Its immitating me afyer i walk through a spider web lol.😅😅😅
wt absolute f? someone kill me please. there is so much chaos.
Pendulum seems inebriated.
Could you mount it to a belt buckle?
That’s how I dance .....

like, wow, man.
I want one 😂
Wawwwwww
Utterly wackadoodle, yet scientifically explainable. Fantastic.
When you’re trying to solve a differential equation with different starting conditions:
If you made a clock with this pendulum, time would either go faster or slower at the scale of minutes but not sometimes faster and sometimes slower.

Chaos can be fun.
Always glad to see ya', Tim! What a pretty pendulum!
amazing device
