  • "Rolling through the Bay", Scott Weaver's toothpick sculpture took 37 years to make. His 9 foot tall sculpture of San Francisco and is made of 100,000 toothpicks and glue. If that wasn't enough, Scott built 5 different "tours" where he can roll a ping pong balls though it and watch them go around the sculpture like a mini roller coaster ride. We visited Scott at home and at San Francisco's @exploratorium to see how and why he builds his toothpick sculptures and to see his work in action. Truly Amazing Art!!!!

      better use something recycled...it is just such a waste and marketing strategy to use toothpicks to get attention...not art, just some craft based on wasting woods since it costs way more to produce those toothpicks, just make some wooden crafts... I feel bad for those trees. kids get inspired to craft when we do a lot of other more environmental friendly things as well. You are just trying to make it sounds deep and meaningful by saying that.

      happiness is greater than wealth while wealth & social status doesnt guarantee happiness but unnecessary attention, that i can assure u. And u ll realize after awhile in life it is harder for u to make real friends when everyone is after some material thing from u at the first place.

      He shouldn't have to work ever again, he clearly has a talent. To be honest it's very sad that this man doesn't realize how important making money off of this is. In order to get back the effort that he put in he should have had his own TH-cam channel where he demonstrated the entire process, he could literally pay for his entire families houses and lives but instead he went on someone else's channel for them to take all the money. I can't stop thinking about this these days, it's the reason I started my own TH-cam channel 5 years ago. I kept going on other channels and I would see the videos would do well, it's the same thing with a 9 to 5 job. Eventually you have to do it for yourself. Everything in life is risky, take that leap.

Have you seen ''day after tomorrow'' same concept. Its fake, doesn't happen. Wont ever happen. Atleast not anytime soon for you to be scared to visit San Andreas LMAO.

    5/8/23.......WOW!.........Thank you for doing this kinetic sculpture!......A fellow artist here,...my name is Dave....I built models as a kid, had building toys, later became an artist, then a print maker, then a one-of-a-kind, sculptured art furniture maker,....less about function more about them being pieces of art. I get such a kick out creators like yourself. I collected aluminum foil to create a basket ball sized ball.
    I love "tramp art" & street artists who use found junk, bottle caps, and creative popsicle stick art. My earliest art when I was in college was building things with corrugated cardboard, I built full body covering costumes, hats that look like architecture, and tons of models for the furniture I later made in wood and mixed media. I appreciate your dedication to building those wonderful toothpick sculptures. Yay!
