Wooden Automata: Bring Sculptures to Life with Movement

So much fun all the way through this Domestika course! Lovely and practical, ideal to those whom have little children, or maybe an innocent and playful mood. Very nice!

Me gustó mucho

Highly recommend. I appreciate how it was stressed that using humble materials can still result in a wonderful automaton. The level of instruction can work for beginners and more advanced woodworkers alike.

Muy recomendble. Un excelente docente que acompaña la inmenrsión en unundo mágico. Ojala concrete una segunda parte profundizando en mecanismos complejos.

Estou encantada com esse trabalho. O curso é ótimo, bem explicado e dá dicas importantes do uso das ferramentas. Fiz a minha peça que ficou linda e já estou pensando em outras possibilidades de construção. Adoraria uma continuidade com mais possibilidades de mecanismos, pois sempre trabalhei com madeira mas não conheço nada de mecânica.

Es estupendo, aunque tengo conocimientos básicoa de capintería, aprendí varias cosas que no sabia sobre cómo hacer automatismos. Muy recomendble !! :)

Excellent course! I already had all of the skills but I was mostly interested in the design and engineering of the waves.

Sem dúvida, eu recomendo ! O artista/professor não esconde que faz o que gosta e gosta do que faz...

I am enjoying this course, still working on the project but its well presented, I had to translate to English for the pdf file, but its a good introduction course for beginner's.
Would like to do more advance course in the future.

Dieser Kurs motiviert sehr dazu sich mit der Mechanik intesiv zu beschäftigen und eigene Projekte zu entwickeln. Der Lehrer ist super

The course was very informative and the project was doable. It is for people who don't know anything about automata and is basic. The instructor seems to be very competent at his craft and over explains everything. I am hoping there will be an advanced course with more complicated movements.

Sorry but I am very disappointed. It really is a beginners course, how to drill a hole and so on. I thought there would be more explanation of the various movements of automata machinery, mechanics, cams etc. given there was a chapter entitled such. I could have worked out how to build the box, ship etc but wanted to learn more of the mechanics. Sorry but I feel cheated of my money. I could recommend this course for older children but not people with some sense of how to make things.

I absolutely loved this inspiring, joyful class and will gladly sign up for any other automata creations that Eduardo Salzane decides to teach. I don't have access to a wood shop, but I made the project with thick cardboard and that worked perfectly well too.

Un joli résultat pour une réalisation très bien expliquée. Un cours qui donne envie de s'y atteler tout de suite !

Adorei!!
