    I think this might be my favourite of all the tensegrity tables I've seen. I get that people want to make them look like they are invisibly floating, but I think there's something a bit disappointing about seeing nearly-invisible monofilament that is the opposite of what I feel when I see chains standing up apparently all by themselves

    • @Chemical14
      @Chemical14  4 роки тому +108

      Thanks! Yes that was my thought process exactly. It seemed like trying to hide the tension elements reads like a second, irrelevant “trick”. The interest in the tensegrity is that the materials don’t behave in the way you expect them to, not that they’re hidden. Thanks for watching!

    Thank you for the plans. I just finished two of the tables yesterday and they turned out great. I used 2" square because it was leftover from a job and 1/4" chain since I had a bucket of it. Also had some tempered glass that dictated the size. I also welded 5/16" all thread to the chain on the bottom with a hole below for adding nuts with a socket allowing me to fine tune each tension chain for a perfect height. The center tensioner I made out of a 5/8" bolt. Great job and fun project.

    The outside chains are not under tension unless the top plate is not horizontal. In general, there is little force on the four corner chains, unless you put something heavy away from the center of the plate.

    I just wanted to mention, be careful with the angle grinder. As a welder myself, I know that the protection mostly sucks and is always in the way, but a coworker recently lost his eyesight on one eye, because the disk broke (we always worked without protection).
    We have a protective face shield, just like yours, and he wore it when it happened. One part smashed it away from his face, and a second disk part cut him straight over the face.
    So be safe bro, such skills shouldnt be wasted, because of a dumb mistake

I use cutting disk protection now - whereas I always took them off before thinking they are not manly like me, before the incident.

  • @crustyoldfart
    @crustyoldfart 4 роки тому +5

    I guess you could say this project is an example of the old adage " each to his own taste ". It just so happens that over 60 years ago as a graduate engineer I did a " graduate apprenticeship " as it was called at a land-boiler manufacturer in Scotland for two years. Here I learned some basic skills including plating and gas and arc welding. Later on I worked for another company on the River Clyde which built destroyers for the Royal Navy. So I'm familiar with metal working especially on the " heavy " side of the spectrum. My former mates would have strongly approved of this sturdy design, one which we can be sure could well withstand a concerted attack from enemy aircraft.
    That said, I have since learned to associate " tensegrity structures " [ a term invented by Buckminster Fuller in the late 1940's who cooperated with others in building these [ usually ] light and airy structures ], which have the characteristics of being at first glance " impossible " because the tension members are often hard to see. They also deflect in response to external forces and are " compliant " or spongy.
    So I find this version rather remarkable in that has strayed so far into the domain of heavy engineering - with chains, admittedly hardly anchor chain, but getting on that way, and sturdy welded frames.
    SO - as I said " each to his own taste " - and devil take the hindmost !

    @anikac8380 4 роки тому +4

    Looks fierce! A clear favorite among the tensegrity table bills I’ve seen. My one suggestion is due to a pet peeve of mine: I think the glass top should match the dimensions the table. The extra lip provides a mean corner to klutz against. Also, it erases the symmetry of the upper and lower halves of your structure.

    • @nwicconsultants6640
      @nwicconsultants6640 Рік тому

      Anika: All in the eyes of the beholder....personally the additional 2" extension adds to the overall symmetry and is a pretty common overlap on tables that are not "used" on a daily bases (eg: kitchen table). More than 2 to 3 inches and the klutz factor kicks in big time which I have solved by going to a heavier and thicker (ie 1/2") glass. The glass is more noticeable and less likely to be accidentally bumped into....but that and having it tempered for safety reasons puts the price extremely high.

      I'd wager whole weight is on the middle chain, side ones are basically just keeping the balance.

    It looks very massive, but when you slightly touch it, it moves! 🤩👍

    you should invest some time fabricating v shaped holder for your dry cut saw, can see workpiece moving multiple times killing your blade much quicker. nice project!

      True. I’ve got a few ideas of things I’d like to do to upgrade my saw set up that would help with precision and reduce vibration. I’m slow to get around to these things because something more exciting always has my attention.

    Nice job. You've made it fairly tight, which gives stability of course, but I 'd like to see how it performs when loosened - does it 'float' best at any given tension.

    That's very clever, took me a few minutes to work out how it's done . . . Tensegrity, eh?
    Doesn't stop it being a fugly piece of furniture, though. Something in the Brutalist style, I think.

    Couple of tips. 1-use a guard with the metabo wheels. 2-dawn soap and water instead of 3in1. Works better and it is weldable with less cleanup.

    I’ve seen a few tables like this. They weren’t as sturdy under load. Great video! I can’t help but feel it looks too chunky in proportionate to the actual table size. Still cool though.

    not gunna lie that thing looks fucken epic!! i might wana give it a go since you provided the plans for this build but i might attempt this in a nice stainless. **will be super annoying to keep the stainless clean when welding but i think the end result will be amazing**
