    This is so special for me and eddy.. it has everything he and me love.. the mountains 🏔 and Mystical magical 🧙🏻‍♀️stories about the ancient creatures that used to live in the mountains, we love water. This is our trophy 🏆 for 2022 the finding of our apartment by the train station 🚉. Thank you Todd for making this for me and changing my view of the world .

      Hi Maracini! Thank you. It's special for me too and I cried a bunch of times while I edited the video this morning. I'm so grateful to have had this experience, which is all your doing; thank you again! You are most welcome my dear teacher. I hope you gets many years of enjoyment for the whirligig. I'm getting ready to go to the store and buy packing materials this afternoon, so hopefully, we can get the whirligig sent to you soon. Stay awesome!

      Hi Maracini! This comment got filtered too; sorry. A truck whirligig would be awesome. I bet you'll be a good mother trucker. I'll think about a truck whirligig. Take care.

    You’ve outdone yourself Todd. I can’t wait to se what the next build will be, maybe a whirligig which you can generate power for your house! 🙂

      Hi John! Thank you. Yeah, I've been think a lot about putting some whirligigs to work for real and start generating some power. You can use old treadmilll motors or any DC motor. No sense sending more money to the P.U.D. than I have to. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you and yours are safe and well. Stay awesome!

    Absolutely Fantastical Todd. I always love how your faces turn out they always are so happy and interesting like they have a big secret to tell you. I am taking a tinkering workshop with the Caberet Mechanical Theatre in May I’m excited to tell you all about it. Thank you for the lovely video and please give Peaches a big hug for me

      @ToddAndrewCole  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Deb! Thank you. The secret is, "I'm glad you're here!" The workshop sounds fantastical. You will have to teach us what you learn. You are most welcome. Thanks for stopping by and for all your support. Peaches is eating a piece of oatmeal cookie at the moment, but I heard her mumble hiiii!!!!! Stay legendary!

    That is definitely some very impressive work Todd. Getting all the features to function as intended can really keep you busy at first on a new whirligig I bet. Thanks for sharing and take care my friend

      Hi Maracini! I think it looks delicious like a big jelly bean, but it could be a gem too. I went and got some packing supplies, so I'm getting ready to see if I can get it all in a box. I was also thinking I could deliver it; it's only 16 hours to L.A.!

    I love the timing of the music with the action at 05:00! Was that intentional? -- The whole thing is just amazing! "Amazing" is really an inadequate adjective. 😊

    That is some complex animation - excellent work! So why add baking soda to super glue? Does it make it taste better?

    • @ToddAndrewCole
      @ToddAndrewCole  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Bob! Thank you. The baking soda acts as a binder for the super glue, like sand in grout. Not sure about the taste; you'll have to experiment and report back to me. Thanks for stopping by. Wishing you all the best.

      Hi Cindy! Thank you. I think I started working on it in the middle of December, so it's been around 9 weeks.
