Some geometric ideas for generating surfaces with parallelograms are explained and applied to the construction of a little library, illustrating how procedural thinking can inform mathematical architecture on a small scale. Dedicated to the memories of Russell Towle and Rob Bell, who gave so generously in sharing their passions for geometry.

    Just looking at the thumbnail I was going to suggest using a scissor. But once I viewed the VID he did use a scissor to make a template then placed it on the deck then went to the band saw to cut the rest for this project. It has been said about Mr. Hart that "if you build it he will come". The hexahedron [cube] in the movie "Stargate" was one of the factors that started my interest in solid geometry. I have forgotten the others. Through the internet one can binge on geometry and other sciences, technologies, and woodworking and metals projects. The polyhedra I build are mostly from a mechanical spatial stand point, not mathematical. The only math I use is to divide a circle to use a simple drafting set to layout for patterns to build my objects/projects.

  • @davidalanjonesridge9874
    @davidalanjonesridge9874 Рік тому

    I discovered polyhedra around 1995, and I have revisited it sporadically over the years. There are three that I invariably keep coming back to and Mr. Hart is one of them. Some of the tricks that he has discovered are stunning. Like cutting slits in playing cards and other media. A suggestion that I have desired to have is for Mr. Hart to put his whole website distributed in PDF format, please. The others are: Father Magnus J. Wenninger OSB, and Gijs Korthals Altes.

    Another method I've seen in a museum somewhere. Imagine a pair of miniature wagon wheels with their axle arranged vertically. Have many small holes in the wheel rims with elastic cord between them taking the shortest vertical path. Twist one of the wheels relative to the other and watch the surface change from a cylinder to a hyperboloid.

    3:32 Why does all solder need flux? I must misunderstand what process is at play This video interests me more in the way he refers to the grits based on microns and stuff, it just indicates knowledge of all the processes going on, like would I think, "OK, it will be shiny when it is sanded such that the surface is smooth and consistent"? No, I'd probably look up how to get it shiny honestly.

    Word of advice toward anyone who is attempting to build this: (1) You can screenshot the template at 1:18 and then resize the image to the dimension of the playing card, place a tape over the screen, and blot two points to demarcate the lines using a felt marker. (2) When drawing the lines, you have to be very particular with the measurements. I noticed that even marginal tolerance will result in an unsymmetrical dodecahedron. This includes how long the line drawn is, along with position of the points used to draw the lines. (3) Assembly is quite challenging to begin with, but is probably more challenging if you use too sharp of an edge to make the cuts. This results in very little space for the cards to slide pass one another. In fact, the saw method in the video probably results in a wider cut making assembly less brutal.
