| "California
Dreamin " (81x50x32) by California sculptor Bruce Gray is a motorized
kinetic ball machine sculpture with 2 steel balls that get lifted by a drive
chain conveyor system. The balls have 3 tracks to follow that are changed
each time by 2 switches, or as I like to call them "gravity operated,
magnetically optimized, switching units." One of the switch ideas actually
came to me one night in a dream, after several days of trying to come up
with a suitable design. "California Dreamin" is part of a private collection. A similar motorized ball machine can be commissioned for around $15,000 and up. This video loads automatically. Double click the image to see it play again. |
