    Springiness of previous designs could be credited to the strings and reduced with cables that had less give.
    So they could work with the right materials and tensioning.

      Exactly! He should build the cool non-touching one using cable. If the legs themselves don't bend and the cable doesn't stretch it should work.

    Pretty sure that once the dowels are touching, it's no longer tensegrity. In particular, the dowels are now bending members. Not to say the design isn't cool - it definitely is; I think it's just more appropriately classified as a reciprocal frame than tensegrity.

      I did my master thesis on tensegrity and sir, you are correct !
      Furthermore, the glass is a rigid object joining other rigid object so even if the dowels were separated, still not complete tensegrity :)
      Still nice table !

    I've been working in a school project for about a month now, and you may not believe it but one of my proposals was this exact table but just with 3 legs. Fortunately I didn't end up choosing that path because 16 hours ago someone did it first so I cant do it any more for my project. What a coincidence men.
    By the way now I'm working on a big table that follows the tensegrity principles I it's turning out pretty cool , so I hope the same coincidence doesn't happen again.
    This ended up being a really long comment.
    I've been watching your videos for years now and I still love them as much as the first day.

    While I always enjoy each of Alexandre's builds, this one actually makes me happy! Why? Because, with some simplifications, it is well within BOTH my skillset and my tool set.
    The first simplification, as I have no lathe, would be to buy hardwood round stock. Next, the top and bottom 3D printed caps could screw flush to the ends or slip over them, eliminating the need for the shoulder. Just cut the stock to length, finish it, and add a few pilot holes on each end. Perhaps use a flared conical section the leg would insert into. So many possibilities!
    To simplify things further, as I have neither long drill bits nor the ability to drill deep centered holes, would be to replace the locking brass inserts with carriage bolts through the legs (using a 3D printed drill guide) and eyelet nuts, with the eyelet on the inside. Wrap the wire multiple times around each eyelet for some friction to get the right final geometry. Fiddly to adjust, but it should be doable. If getting the bolts right becomes a problem, even simpler would be to use split-ring pipe hangers with eyebolts. Again, many possibilities.
    The thing is, by changing only the wire length, the same legs may be used for a low coffee table and also for taller matching end-tables with a smaller diameter top. Such versatility! Would need to verify the end-table stability.
    Yes, this looks to be totally doable, even by me. I'm very happy!

    Very nice design, defently has a place in a modern living room.

    Very cool! I think there's a way to build a similar structure without the legs contacting one another. The way to do it is by having four cables coming from each brass sleeve (2 per side) rather than 2 (1 per side), and running in opposite directions--one to the leg forward, and the other cable to the leg aft.

  • @stophnerf
    @stophnerf 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Would be really nice to lathe out a filleted taper towards the centre of each of the legs, so that the points where they are most likely to touch has more space. You probably wouldn't want to stand on it after that, but it'd highlight the gravity-defying techniques used, and hero the engineering a little more. Something that you should be able to do if/when you receive the new wire connector and have to disassemble. Would be good to see you revisit later on!

  • @guitarchitectural
    @guitarchitectural 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    now that you have pinned the cables in place, I think some of those other forms would actually be a lot more stable. the thing with them before was that the "legs" could move in two directions - but now that they're pinned, they can only move in one direction. the steel cable fixes them in place when it is tensioned, and with little "spring" they aren't really going to do much. It's no longer a slipping/sliding joint.

    Really cool stuff. You probably already know, but the flex it your prototypes could be reduced quite a lot with an aspect ratio change. If it was a little more slender then the max tension in your ties would be reduced and taken in compression through the dowels instead. The final flex could be managed by using a less elastic material for the tension ties and dialing in their prestress until you have something rigid and stable!

    Hey Alexandre! You might already know this but another way to find the center of any part on the mill is to take the bit and put it flush on your part (like you did) but this time set it to 0. Then put the bit flush on the opposite side of the part. Now press the function "1/2" and then "Y". This way if you do not know the size of your bit and/or part you can find the exact center of the part 100% of the time. Once you have completed the function return the bit to 0 and you have found the center of your part. This also works if you hate/don't trust yourself to do math in your head (like me).

I was under the impression that they were like a bigger router table (and they are), but the fact that the cutter (not called bits anymore ;-) ) are so much heavier means that there is no way you can muscle out of it. The danger is metal lathe is that if you dont lock all the levers/nuts, pieces can move and the workpiece can catch on something, blow up and end up in your face/body.

    Alexandre, why didn't you just chuck each of the legs in the lathe, and use the tail stock chuck to drill the axial bores for the locking screws?

    one option that would have been interesting to add in the brass tubes would be to freeze them before putting them in place, since metal contracts when its cold once they warmed up they would form a super tight fit. although usually when i see people doing that its in metal working

      yeah, they are just humidifiers. when it gets really cold here we have to use more heaters so the air gets super dry.

    Instead of crimping the wire together can you just use one the bolts in one of the legs to hold two ends of the wire together?
