Whirligig progress

05-23-2012, 08:42 AM

Even with all the interruptions managed to get a little done.
It's coming out to be a flower. There will be a 3D bumble bee in the center. I'm hanging it so it will go in a circular motion but will remain in an upright position. The face stinks I have to cut it off and make a new one. There will be more bee's and the large final gear will rotate a group of flying bee's, I think.
I have been promised by puppies, kitties and people no interruptions today.

With all the gears and Bee's, are you making a Whirligig or a wind farm?

It's all fun

Thanks for the info Denny. When I cut acrylic I always use a skip tooth blade at a slower speed. I just did not realize that the epoxy would cut the same way as acrylic so I followed the materials list in the article.

OK folks, picture. I finally figured out how to upload a picture. Here is one each of my version of the oak and cherry boxes. Note the axle peg holding the top in place but allowing it to move.
