Not only are these now available for sale in our store (C-Bench here, C-Stone here), but we’ve gotten Peter to put together a behind-the-scenes compilation of exactly how the C-Bench is made. This article will give you a behind the scenes look at what it takes to make one of these benches. 3D Modeling The Bench The first step to creating the bench was to create a virtual model of it in 3D. After learning from the guys that he works with about the geodesic path (The shortest path between two points) they needed to use to wind the fiber, Peter started to experiment in Rhino using a plug-in called Grasshopper and was able to find a solution. The next step was do some final 3D renders in MODO 401 to get a good idea of the final design: As you can see, the renders came out very close to the actual product.

Minimum clearance for the top layer overhang is 2 inches to allow for chain mount space. Any obstruction under the top layer of the table should be a minimum of four (4) inches. The strict width of the table shall be 51-7/8 inches. Insert one 1/2 inch ID bearing to the left gantry side. Add the idler sprocket assembly to left gantry side using one 3/8 x 2 inch screw, two 3/8 inch medium washers, one 3/8 inch thin washer and one 3/8 inch nut. Insert the v-groove bearing and idler sprocket assembly to the left gantry side using one 3/8 x 3 inch screw, two 3/8 inch large washers, two 3/8 inch thin washers one v-groove bearing, one idler sprocket and one 3/8 inch nut. Insert one 1/4 x 1-1/2 inch screw and cross dowel to serve as the bearing adjustment screw. Install the lower v-groove bearing assembly to the left gantry side as shown. Fasten the upper y-axis rail to the rail support as shown.
ROSAMOND KEMBER :: EXPERIMENTAL MODELLING 2011 Professor 3D - 3D Training and Digital Nonsense OVERVIEW — NSTRMNT SGSC is a set of Grasshopper tools that allows users to simulate and control a range of Staubli six-axis robot arms. It contains a highly customized inverse kinematics solver, visual simulator, diagnostic tool, and code generator.SGSC helps to solve many of the problems with traditional trigonometric IK solvers, including allowing joint calculations to go well beyond +/- 180 degrees, and resetting joints whose angles exceed their limits. There are a multitude of inputs and options that allow users to create highly customized and complex control logics that are all editable at a high level of programming (so that none of the underlying coding needs to be changed). A major benefit of SGSC is the ability to take advantage of the advanced logic and data matching methods built in to Grasshopper to parametrically assign simulation and control settings. For example, the electrical and pneumatic outputs can easily be triggered based on changing parameters of the simulation.

Light House is the latest installation created by New York based studio SOFTlab , commissioned by Sonos to create an interactive light and sound installation that responds in real-time to Sonos components. Latest intervention form United Visual Artists involved the the transformation of this years Serpentine Pavilion designed by Sou Fujimoto by according the artists words, bringing the cloud-like structure to life with an electrical storm. Milkywave reflects on the practice of city-making through the objects that populate the collective memory; an attempt to rethink howmundane things with a material substance, shape, texture and color coalesce to form the atmosphere and character of the city. The installation CL:0C is a perpetual motion machine.
