I still have a woodden clock I bought in the 80's that sort of work like this, metal balls that follow an intrincated path, I've spent more than the healthier period of time watching it work. With something like this I wouldn't move for the rest of my life, fascinating.
Beautiful work, very creative, and lots of action. I only wish I could have heard the sounds of the marbles on the tracks instead of the music. Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us. I love your work. Dan
Wow! I don't think I've ever seen turns, loops, and switchbacks THAT smooth before. You've obviously been doing this a long time, Boris. Keep it up! Great work
Yes, me too. Did time seem to change? For me it seemed like 15 minutes. It's not that it was boring, I got a kick out of the whole thing, it just seems like time changed.
Very beautiful work !!😀 As you, I watched the movie Fracture a week ago and I had some kind of revelation !! 🤩😀 Where is it possible to buy one and what price please ? 😀
That was spectacular! I want to build one of these but I know I won’t get anything near that thing. That was so complex. It was enjoyable and relaxing to watch. Smooth AF.
When I was in my early teens, I was fascinated with this very idea. I drew dozens of designs of how I would make one. Everyone I knew, including parents discouraged me from consuming so much time in just the designs. I never got to making one as they thought I was losing my mind. Well, maybe I was a little obsessed with it. Yes, it serves no purpose. But I considered it excersizing the mind. A physicist can spend hours on end developing a hydrogen bomb that can wipe out all living things and thats ok. But a kid develops a tinker machine that has people forget their problems even for just a few moments and he's the one that has issues. Go figure.
It's never too late to make one yourself if you feel like doing it, no matter what people say. Over years of making RBS i spend less and less time for designing and more time for actual build, directly from my head and it works just fine.
@@WeR1sculptures I was/am pretty good with wood. One of my shop teachers in high school I guess took note of my qualities. I had pretty much finished all my required assignments and was kinda bored. He showed me something that he thought I would like to make. But I couldnt tell anyone what it was called. It was called a BS grinder. He didnt want to catch wind of it for obvious reasons. Anyways. It was a real simple application, the basics of your designs. A "3×"3× "3/4 block with dovetail routered crossways. 2 pieces "1 long fit in those dovetails and were connected by a "4 handle. One in the center and the other at either end. A knob was placed at the opposite end. Thats it. You cranked it around and it did absolutely nothing but keep people entertained for a while. It was equally entertaining to me watching people fiddle with it. But that was one of the best projects I made in school. Simply because that was the things I liked. I would have made a ball roller, but lack of funding and, seriously, my folks were starting to think I had an OC disorder because that was all I was thinking about at times. I had drawings scattered all over the house. Its kind of funny.
dont think that's possible as some of the features needed the weight of several marbles and some they need to go trough different tracks to complete the cycle...

Honey, I'm missing the beautiful brown dish aunt Beckie gave us last Xmas... Honey... She's coming tomorrow you know... Honey?.. OMG... and you drilled it...
@@WeR1sculptures YOu should do some software CGI versions of this for like a screensavor or something fun like that I remember GT250 had something like that a long long time ago for a screensavor video tester thing ua-cam.com/video/hyCIpKAIFyo/v-deo.html
Some elements can be noisy (ball jump, and semicircle drop for sure) but the motor is noiseless.. If a quiet sculpture is needed, those elements are definetly not recommended. Plastic or ping pong balls are more quiet too. I've made "Tree Tango" as an office sculpture. It's also interesting how the noise dissapeares in a large room...
would be PERFECT if it can be sort of “perpetual motion” maybe saving energy from those drops, trigger some winding setups, then release the next marble
It's always interesting to use balls kinetic energy for some side work like to lift or release another ball. I have done that. But unfortunately perpetual motion is not an option.
First i have an agreement with a client about overall size of the sculpture, lift type, number of tracks and what elements it will have. The placement of the elements and tracks are completely mine creation and usually i add a new element or two. I am trying to place the elements in the sculpture as evenly as possible, but i never plan the whole sculpture. It "just happens".

My question is how do you keep the dark blue marbles in the light blue marbles separate on the ascending corkscrew when there are dark and Light, at least it looked as though that were the case, going through the whirlpool? That seems to be more random than any other part of the structure.
I recommend thorough internet research (tutorials on welding, bending , working with metal...) and watching /studying RBS videos. And dont't forget the safety!

"more than healthier period of time" - well said sir 😄
Dang that lighting and color are easy on the eyes 😮
This is the most amazing piece of marble art I’ve seen. I love the engineering of this. Again, AMAZING piece of work.
Simply beautiful!
Beautiful work, very creative, and lots of action. I only wish I could have heard the sounds of the marbles on the tracks instead of the music. Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us. I love your work. Dan
I agree I find satisfaction in listening to the marbles create music
I was going to say the same thing.
What marbles?
@nobody8thechicken Oh I got my balls but lost my marbles!
Link to a video with original sound is now added to the video description. Enjoy.
Wow! I don't think I've ever seen turns, loops, and switchbacks THAT smooth before. You've obviously been doing this a long time, Boris. Keep it up! Great work
It will be full 10 years this year. Thank you very much!
well made marble track AND video ;-)
Insane! Excellent craftsmanship... I want one!
Love this, well done Boris! So creative. I wish this was sitting in my living room. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Man this is amazing. Would really like to have one of these in my living room and just chill while looking at those balls going so smoothly.
Reminds me of something Rube Goldberg would have thoughtof/created. Very nicely crafted and mesmerizing to watch. My hat's-off to the creator.
This is the coolest thing I’ve seen for a long long long time. I want to make one but it won’t even nearly compare. My hat goes off.
What a beautiful work of art👍🏼‼️
Reminded me of the Ocean 11 movies while they are breaking down the incredibly complex heist in real time. Well done to both craftsman and editor
Thank you for compliments since i'm both.
Fantastic...Beautiful....
A beautiful piece of art. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Richard.
Beautiful, creative and spectacular😃.
思わず最後まで無心に見とれてしまいました！
面白かったです！

Watching this without skipping a single "10 seconds" skipper-tap!! Commenting after the video has ended!
Yes, me too. Did time seem to change? For me it seemed like 15 minutes. It's not that it was boring, I got a kick out of the whole thing, it just seems like time changed.
The best sound is the sound of the marbles; precisely nothing else !!!!!!!!!!!!!¨
Superior build! Very smooth bends and welds! Intense imagination!
I want it. The music reminded me a bit of the pinball music in Sesame Street.
Great video
Great work..👍👍
Very cool...well done
Very beautiful work !!😀 As you, I watched the movie Fracture a week ago and I had some kind of revelation !! 🤩😀 Where is it possible to buy one and what price please ? 😀
Reminds me of the pinball video that was shown on either seame st. Or the Electric Company..... fun video to watch
Yes!!! I was going to say that exactly!!!

Glad I'm not the only one that went there though that last ramp always bothered me. Even back then I knew it wouldn't work as drawn.
Wow, this is amazing work! I love creative, imaginative people! You make life more fun and interesting.
I'm flattered, thank you.
The music complements the sculpture very well.
Thank you.

Amazing Sculpture, abysmal music.
This is astounding. 👍
Beautiful!

Very nice. Love the components and mechanisms.
Do you have a video of this sculpture without the music, just the sounds it makes by itself?
Its so distracting I had to mute.
Yeah, right?
Love it. Could you show a clip with one marble cycle through the piece with the whole sculpture in frame and one camera angle?
dont think that's possible as some of the features needed the weight of several marbles and some they need to go trough different tracks to complete the cycle...
this is just beautiful
Amazing Work!!!
Very cool!
Who build this masterpiece ?
Mesmerising work !
🤘👌

Is there any chance you would post this video without the music? I love to hear the sounds of the mechanisms, and the ball rollings.
Sure! The link is in the video description. Enjoy.
@@WeR1sculptures Awesome! thanks
. Ohh!!!
. I get it now.
. I thought this was a working model of the Boston freeway system.
The noise this thing must make. Don't think I'd want one in my office.
Some elements can be noisy (ball jump, and semicircle drop for sure) but the motor is noiseless.. If a quiet sculpture is needed, those elements are definetly not recommended. Plastic or ping pong balls are more quiet too. I've made "Tree Tango" as an office sculpture. It's also interesting how the noise dissapeares in a large room...
Very nice. Is that 303 or 304 or 316 1/8" stainless rod? I like the way it polishes up.
It's 304 1/8" for the tracks and yes, it polishes quite nicely :)
Great job how can I get one???
Way cool!
Top notch
Story of life. We all on same journey, we just all experience it different.
Awesome
would be PERFECT if it can be sort of “perpetual motion”
maybe saving energy from those drops, trigger some winding setups, then release the next marble
It's always interesting to use balls kinetic energy for some side work like to lift or release another ball. I have done that. But unfortunately perpetual motion is not an option.
Ball return at the bowling alley.
I would love to take that commission :)
How do you plan such a machine? As complete or make x amount of seperate modules and improvise them to a complete machine? Awesome artwork!

What is the music? I need to add it to my collection. Fantastic piece of art!
Information about the music is in the video description. I'm glad you like it.
how many meters are needed in this structure
Damn great
Holy Jesus!
Una maravilla
Where can I buy these
Fantastic. What is the cost of one of these commissions?
My question is how do you keep the dark blue marbles in the light blue marbles separate on the ascending corkscrew when there are dark and Light, at least it looked as though that were the case, going through the whirlpool? That seems to be more random than any other part of the structure.
Dark blue balls and light blue balls have separate tracks (3 tracks each) and they never mix.
WeR1sculptures awesome... This is absolutely stunning. I think my favorite. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
I think the question was that some of the marbles on the same track appeared to be different colors.
I want one!!!
Brillant !!!
I feel like you cant find this in any other country except the U.S.
There's a lot in the USA but this is a worldwide phenomenon. 🗺 Best regards from Slovenija - EU ☺
@@WeR1sculptures oh thanks for the info
Olá gostaria muito de ter uma escultura desta ,como consigo uma ??qual nome correto para fazer uma pesquisa .
Hi. For more information about commissioning please contact me on my mail from the video description.
This makes me think of the robots movie.
TheWatchingEye yea it does
Wow!!!
Espectacular
Awesome work, dude.
Are you aware that your site wer1sculptures.com is not working?
Fazer todo este sistema com bolas de neodímio e movimento perpétuo. Fica a dica.
Infelizmente, isso não funciona
you should have put black diamond by kiss over it
Whoa.
I um, well, so... now I'm going to have to copy you as I learn. Its, well, you leave me nearly speechless. simply the best.
素晴らしい
Wow 👍🏽
where can i learn to make these things myself
I recommend thorough internet research (tutorials on welding, bending , working with metal...) and watching /studying RBS videos. And dont't forget the safety!
Take my money please I soooo want one.
