Broad Ripple Windworks
Share
Broad Ripple Windworks is based on the Northside of Indianapolis and produces kinetic wind sculptures. They are manufactured from copper and brass.
The latest creation from the workshop.
Something new off the bench.
Even in the depths of winter life test development work continues with the addition of electrically conducting slips rings to provide power for onboard LEDs, blue strips in this case, into a spinning thing lashed together from some 4" scrap waste pipe, some solder, some 1/2" L type tubing and of course some RTV silicon for sealing.
Working on incorporating slip rings into my art to light up the pieces at night. An interesting engineering and electrical challenge. Also continuing the winter builds for spring/summer deliveries. Busy times.
