  • In each bi-monthly episode of DiResta (every other Wednesday at 2pm PT), artist and master builder Jimmy DiResta (Dirty Money, Hammered, Against the Grain, Trash for Cash) lets us into his workshop, to look over his shoulder while he builds whatever strikes his fancy. On this episode of DiResta, which Jimmy shared with MAKE as a holiday bonus video, he remembers a wood bending technique he experimented with as a teen and creates this wonderful modern lamp as a result.
    For lists of materials, tool, and supplies, notebook sketches, and Jimmy's notes, see the post on MAKE: blog.makezine.c...

    as a few people explained the cuts cross each other at a slight angle, they appear straight but in fact they cross each other at 2 spots and the result is a wooden "spring" very flexible but also fragile Thank you !

    I know, I've seen them all. :) I just meant they should each of them still be on, in my opinion. Can't wait for the new show. I'm sure none of us can. Keep up the hugely inspiring work, and thank you.

  • @gotchaO55
    @gotchaO55 11 років тому

    His first cuts were made parallel with the edge of the plywood. When he flipped the piece over he made the second cuts at a slight angle. This leaves a thin strip of wood in two places along each cut that keeps it from falling apart. You can see the parts that hold it together at 4:41 when the light is shining through it.

    Basically, you don't need all the awesome tools. Propane torch and a couple car batteries and welding sticks to form the metal. Nicer and faster to use the acetylene and TIG welder. Basic skill saw to cut the wood. You spend a LOT more time setting up each cut, but, it's doable. There's always multiple routes to get from A to Z.

    You know it took me three replays to work out those cuts. The first cut straight and not all the waynthrough. The second cut was at an angle, which is the key...correct.

    You will notice that when he flips it over, he cuts the lines of the reverse side at an angle. That is why it didn't just fall apart

  • @rodor14
    @rodor14 11 років тому

    Analyze the situation. He first made horizontal cuts, then he made almost 18 (aprox.) degree cuts, that way he just cut part of the wood but the other part is still ''attached''.
    Those ''attachments'' can be seen at 3:41 and also at 4:41 when he lights ir up =)

    i think he cut the other side diagonally. that's why he nailed that board to the table so the wood would be slanted on one side and straight on the other

  • @rwyankees
    @rwyankees 11 років тому

    Just a guess but, the first cut he made was straight but not all the way through the wood. The second cut he made was at an angle to the first cut also not all the way through. If you look on the second cut he has a guide to hold the wood and it is at an angle to the first guide he used. Could be way off the mark but that is what I noticed between the 2 cuts.

    The cuts aren't directly one ontop of the other, in other words they are at angles so they're still glued together and as the slits form over lapping X's they still curve and dont form a spiral curve but a full circular curve allow him to keep the cylindrical form of the lamp shade. Any help?

    On one side he cut it at an angle. You can see the parts that are still attached from 1:35 to 1:48.
