The BatCycle Demo: Rotations after first set of Triangles installed

Join us in our BeadALong to learn this form!

The BatCycle was discovered in 2017 by Claudia Furthner, and this demo in progress was designed and beaded by Kate McKinnon. Before the second set of Triangles is installed, the cycle has many possible stages, including flat flexagons.

Great to see the faces on this machine. Thank you for showing it in such detail. Batcycle is on my bead board.

[@ViolettaPretorius]

Thank you for sharing the video Kate! About to start on one in my favourite colour combo 😊

To quote one of my favorite brains, I am gobsmacked. Utterly and completely gobsmacked.

[@galeem713]

Amazing!!!! I can’t wait until we are out of a stay at home lockdown to get some beads and start.

[@beadmat3527]

Oh my these flexing hexagons are a bit of magic aren't they

[@contemporarygeometricbeadw3414]

Please note that only ONE set of Triangles is installed at this time, which is why there are so many views/rotations.

[@annrascenet-cole693]

I shall make my first Batcycle the same. I want to see ALL the views

Please tell us how many triangles are here

[@contemporarygeometricbeadw3414]

6 warped hexes and 6 triangles, but room for 6 more triangles. Go see the pattern.

Thanks so much for posting this. Is there anywhere which would show me where to put the triangles? I've watched videos and read but can't figure it out. I feel like if I knew where everything went then I'd understand it. I think I have my warped hexagons joined correctly.

Look closely at 3:02 and you will understand ! 🙂

[@cherisandall7934]

@@lauriebasmati904 Thank you. I'm looking at it and so far just can't wrap my brain around it. I'll keep trying.

I'm a total beginner, I've gone a bit nutty with stashing seed beads. Not so much delica beads .... Can I learn your Jedi ways with 11/0 beads? Japanese mostly.

[@alisaurus4224]

You need cylinder beads for this kind of thing because the peyote shapes that are seamed together to make it won’t have straight edges if made with regular rounded seed beads.

Incroyable !!!! Je suis fan
Comment fait-on cela ?
Avez-vous fait un tuto ?

[@kathiestott7854]

How do you make it and how can I get a pattern
