This is an excellent build. It just went onto my scroll saw to do list. Thanks so much for this and for everything you have done over the years for the scroll saw community. There is no one else who comes close to your contribution to scroll sawing in both your designs and in sharing your knowledge of this craft, not to mention you superb kindness to your fellow humans. The world is definitely a better place with you in it.
Thank you. You have been very helpful. I have to start at the beginning before moving to the next level. 1 Do what you have done. 2 Get both wheels turning. 3 Get the wheels to change direction and get it mounted on a wall. That's a big enough list and possibly a few months of trial and error. Cheers mate. Have a great day.
Steve, I've made some kinetic sculptures as well. You should give a constant force spring a try for power. Drill press quill return springs can be easy to find and sized about right. A ratchet and pawl mechanism can be cut from wood, and either magnets or centrifugal force used for timing of the power being applied. Ball bearings are needed to get long rotation times. With proper timing a single wind can run for many hours. Your "wheels" of the sculpture should be weighted on one side, so when done spinning they settle weight down, lining up your magnet to temporarily release the pawl on the ratchet and allow the spring to activate.
You might want to try using a skateboard bearing instead of running wood on wood. They are cheap and easy to find. And as close to friction free as any bearing around that size that I have found. I use them on wooden clocks. The inside diameter is a bit above 1/4". I insert a short piece of 9/64" brass tubing from the local hobby shop and that tubing has a 1/4" I.D. making it a perfect fit for a 1/4" shaft.
I’m thinking of cutting these out on my cnc router when I get it back up and running. I am eliminating using a pc to control it to using an SMC5-5-n-n controller. When I build this sculpture, I am going to make the front one turn the opposite direction to make a better effect.
I CNC milled just the wheel parts, worked great! My grandfather cut the spirals on the scroll saw but we had a terrible time trying to scroll saw or drill the wheel holes to fit nicely on the motor without gluing it to the shaft. I'm sure you could CNC the whole thing but it feels like cheating :)
Years ago I made something similar. Is easy to made 2 patterns move. Its not so complex. Also there are engines with constant speed driven by 60 Hz. I buy those for made some clocks but never end that project.
I have a 20 inch sears craftsman contractor series scrollsaw purchased in 1992 and am thinking of replacing it with a Seyco st21, what are your thoughts.
I have owned the Seyco st21 since before it was shipping and it is a fantastic saw. If you have not used any of the modern scroll saws then you are in for a treat. I know the owner of Seyco and he is excellent to do business with. Ray has been an active part of the scroll saw community for many years and knows the hobby better than anyone out there. Their support is excellent. Many scroll saw brands are having shipping delays right now because of the pandemic. You may have to wait a little for delivery but it is worth the wait in my opinion.
Hi Ron. The DeWalt DW788 is a mid-range scroll saw but it is probably the most popular saw ever sold. I still own one that is about 13 years old and it runs fine. It does not have the same build quality as some of the more expensive saws but it is far from cheaply built. It cuts a little more aggressive than some saws but you get used to that. If you want to be a production cutter then you may do better with a high-end saw. If you are a few times a week scroller then the DeWalt is fine. Like all tools, you want to buy from a source with a good return policy. I still see out-of-the-box problems occasionally so it's good to have easy returns.
very good. the next improvement may be add a motor driver to turn clockwise 2 min then turn to counter clockwise 2 min. automatically. because that time its looks better. i want to make this movement with two spring that one attached to front, the other attached to back. when turn bay hand (firt movement to set springs) firs spring release and the other set (gain kinetic energy) . after release the hand two spring work different directions and vica versa. i know its difficult to explain it with words. its theory . i will try it. think like "pull and relase" toy cars. thank you.
I love your ideas. When you get it completed send me a link to the video or picture.

@@stevegood3224 sure. another advise that you know , paint the arms in red and green (half of arm red and half of green) . it increases illusionic effect of kinetic art.
sir can you make one with the front piece also rotating driven by the motor, i wanted to understand how i can rotate 2 discs in opposite direction using the same motor hence the query
Hi Howard. Sorry, you did not like the content. If you look in the description I provide a link to the pattern. Included in the pattern is a description of the motor drive as well as a link to where I purchased the motor. Definitely not clickbait but you are entitled to your opinion. By the way, clickbait is one word.

Now this is too cool! So many possibilities - battery power acrylic with a changing LED light. Nice!
অসাধারণ কৌশল অবলম্বন করে তোলার জন্য ধন্যবাদ ভাইয়া।
very nice Steve very interesting piece of work. THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Thanks so much! These pieces have always fascinated me. I can’t wait to make one

Yep nice feeling brother
I can’t wait to try this! Thank you, Steve!
AWESOME! THE BEST TUTORIAL YET : )
That's wicked. Love this build. Thanks for sharing 👍🏾

@@yvettereynolds5945 Sorry, no.

Neat idea Steve. Thanks for all you do.
Awesome project and pattern. Awesome video!
Excelente! 🤩...vou tentar copiar seu trabalho 😊..
Achei LINDO e muito criativo!Abrcs.Boa noite
(Vou seguir seus trabalhos)😎
Excellent work. Thank you
This is so cool!
Very easy and simple even kids can put things together
Great design and project Steve..
Awesome. Love that. Thanks 😊
Very nice. Can't wait to get started.
You're amazing Steve! Thank you!
Steve, you’re a genius!!!
So cool! What an amazing work!!!
Dude love this !!!
That is absolutely beautiful.

Please be careful when clicking links in the comments. Most of them are spam. Only click links in the description.
I’ve seen that frequently, Steve. So sad but there are many slimey people in this world.
This is really cool.. I’d like to try to make one.
Ahora si gracias Steve
Yes I was wondering how to get the pattern or template for this piece
Hi Tommy. The download link is in the description under the video.
Sir, I am tripping balls and watching this video on loop.
What's the size of two wings and how much watts power motor you used?
Hello great work, I wanted to know what motor did you use ?
RUclips does not like product link. Download the pattern in the description. There is a link in the pattern to the motor I used.
Super cool 😎
I didn’t see a link to download the pattern. What is the diameter of the two pieces?
Thanks

Mr. Steve, what do you think about the Dewalt 788 scroll saw? I have it in my sights to buy one in the future.

Why front piece do not rotate?
I wish I could do this. Things like this go for $300-1000k on etsy.
Would be a neat clock
Outstanding
Would look way better if both turned, I've seen one like
What are the specs for the motor?
How cool!
Hola estoy suscrito ,pero no tengo acceso al blogspot
sir can you make one with the front piece also rotating driven by the motor, i wanted to understand how i can rotate 2 discs in opposite direction using the same motor hence the query
Yes it's possible there are some tutorials on yt how to do this
Hello! Can you send it to Russia by Post?
You need a 3-D printer Mr.
I have a 3d printer. I write a scroll saw blog so this was a scroll saw project. It would be fun to do on my 3d printer though.
@@stevegood3224 Good job, old school.👍👍
Nice
The speed is not constant..! And... slow speed is better..!
nope you need counter rotation bud. i used a gearbox from a drill planetary w mods. give it to the world for free, no patents
im use my 100watt laser to cut this out
