So many people also liked the chickens that it led me to create “A Moment in Silence” just to have more pecking chickens! It is one of my more popular pieces at shows.
Ron Varga Thanks Ron. Yes it was getting a little tight to hook up all the linkages after I put the ground plate on. I should have left myself a little more room!
Just love this. Great foley work too! The horse-of-a-different-color theme reminds me of a canvas print I've got by artist Nancy Glazier - "Primary Colors" .
kindafoggy Thanks. I was having fun digging through sound effect files on Final Cut Pro. A chance to play outside the shop for a bit. I thought the sound might help sell the fact that the horse changing colour might be hard to visually pick up.
Hello Al Amazing ability to make your automata. A couple of questions if I could. What type of wire do you use, and do you use a particular reference for the cams and gears, thank you.
I usually use bras wire 3/64" die. for link wires. Easy to bend and readjust if necessary. For some heavy loads I have used Stainless Steel. Gears I design using a gear template generator from woodgears.ca. Cams I design myself.
Hi Eva, the horse is actually four different horses that look alike but are four different colours. They run off a Geneva mechanism that rotates when the door is closed. If you go the my website conquergoodcreative.com and look in the Automata Gallery for "A Horse of a Different Colour" and look in the attached photo gallery you can see some pictures of it. AL
Absolutely brilliant!
Thanks Amanda for your kind words!
I like each and every little detail. Bravo 👏
Thanks for your comment!
You, my good man, are a creative genius!
Somedays! Thanks.
Another amazing job well done! Love the sound effects.
The movement of the pecking chickens is my favorite

wow you're the master ar this
Thanks. I try.
What are the animal and human figures carved from?
The figures are made from basswood, a popular wood used by carvers as it is fine grained and carves easily.
Nice !
Thanks
how did you do that with deju colors
Soory do not understand the question. Deju colours?
Amazing work Al, how long does a project like this take? I'm guessing months from the little experienced effort I've made?
7 weeks for this including time spent designing and CAD drawing the mechanism to configure the mechanism.
👏👏👏 😃 💝...!
That racoon though
My dog's name is Buckshot too
THe Farmer up the road had a dog named Buckshot. I always that it was a great name. Current favourite is a friend who has a dog named Hiccup!
Are you not gonna tell us how you did it???
Out standing, just now trying to make my first one. How long did it take you to make this.
+Yvonne93436 From start of design to completion about a month.
