Mechanics for Creating Wooden Automatons

Overview

“Now, I'll show you how to drill holes to position the axes, fix the gears and define the fixed point position of the wings. Also, I will set the offset value and drill the crank hole in the gears. Let's go? ”

In this video lesson Eduardo Salzane addresses the topic: Positioning of Shafts and Gears, which is part of the Domestika online course: Mechanics for Creating Wooden Automatons. Learn to build gears, cranks, and links with simple tools to create moving sculptures that simulate wings flapping..

“Positioning of shafts and gears In this lesson, we are going to position the gears on the base and for that, let's build the scroll areas for the axes. I will position the gears on the base and understand the measurements and clearances necessary for this placement. A set of gears cannot work very fair, that is, very close, and not too far apart. This will compromise your movement. Before drilling, let's review the drawing. Here, I determined a measurement of 65 millimeters between the centers of the holes. To mark this on the part, you can take the reference from one end, offset 52.5mm on ...”
