Windmill Sculpture: Scale model work in progress.

More work in progress so far on the scale model for the Bamboo Windmill Sculpture.

I have been playing with the ratio on the peg gears and devising a way of alternating the drive from the wheel to turning a crank by hand or letting the wind turn those sails! It has been tricky because I needed to get the right spacing between the pegs for a clean connection, but with patience and time I eventually got there.

I intend to get this finished so that I am able to calculate the amount of artworks needed to decorate the sculpture.



“BLOWING creativity into our sails, WEAVING new stories and experiences, FORGING new relationships and community!
