      Tension physics is relatively tricky as well. At least when on a scale where you’re trying to hold up a lot more weight. But still something like this can still be a bit of a challenge especially when dealing with the twisting force as well when only having basically a single line in the center supporting the weight of the top. A cool redesign of this would be to have multiple little stems jutting out from the bottom and “hovering” between each other, allowing for more support for the weight and by spreading the load out further it would also keep it more balance and less wobbly right off the bat. Another thing they could have done was design it in a way that the support lines ran to help keep it from twisting could have been placed so that they ran right across another line, and could have used like an X connector to almost tie those 2 separate lines together, so that when it wants to twist, the tension of the anti twisting lines helps, but those also pull on another line to help keep it rigid as well. There’s so many cool things you could do with this to improve it but for the basic design they were after and for not spending a ton of time trying to design it to be perfect and doing a bunch of trial and error, this is very well done

      You know how when you pull on a rubber band and let it go, it doesn't just fall? It has a spring to it? It also becomes longer and thinner, right? You pulling on the elastic causes an internal force to form within the band. This force is released when you let go of the band or when the band snaps. When they tighten the strings, they're adding tension. The tension withen the string, it's enough to hold up the table.

    A good way to know if the strings are in the same tension is to make them vibrate like a string instrument. The lines will be in tune with each other if they have the same tension. Keep in mind the vertical lines will sound different than the diagonal lines.

      Ooh I like this! Although it would only work if the lines were also *exactly* the same length to begin with... I imagine they ended up with a slight tension differentiation to compensate for the slight length differentiation they got when cutting the lines

      @cameronmueller-harder3916 2 роки тому +18

      @@canadianchemist5052 That's a very good point, it's not at all intuitive! Here's a way of thinking about it that makes it a little bit more intuitive: Picture you have two elastics that are super super stretchy. One is 11 inches long, and one is 1 inch long. If you stretch them both to exactly a foot long, the 11 inch one is going to make a relatively medium pitch noise, but the 1 inch long string is going to make a *much* higher pitch noise! (*wistful sigh* don't you just love logical extremes?) Obviously their strings are much closer in length than 11 inches vs 1 inch, but if two are about a half inch different (one was a quarter inch too short and one was a quarter inch too long, say), they could totally make noticeably different pitches!

    • @cameronmueller-harder3916
      @cameronmueller-harder3916 2 роки тому +15

      Oh wait I think I misunderstood your argument, sorry! This is definitely super counterintuitive, and I have no way of making it more intuitive... if two strings are the same tension, it actually doesn't matter how long they are at all! An inch long string stretched to 2 inches will make exactly the same pitch as a 10 inch string stretched to 20 inches. This feels super wrong, but it's totally true (as long as the strings are completely identical in every other way)! This is why tensioning the strings using pitch won't work... because if their strings start as different lengths then they actually don't *want* them to be the same tension!
      Again, let's take it to the logical extreme. Let's say their strings are supposed to be 12 inches long, and one they accidentally cut to be 10 inches and one to 14 inches, oops! They decide to use them anyway, and tension them using pitch. If they make them the same tension, then one leg of the table will suddenly be 10 inches tall, and one would be 14 inches tall! This is why they tensioned them the way they did. This way they were able to counteract any small differences in length. In this example extreme case, it would mean tightening the 14 inch string a whole lot. That would then mean the 10 inch one and the 14 inch one could be in equilibrium with each other (although probably not, given how big of a difference that would be), but they would be at very different tensions, meaning very different pitches!

    So maybe someone else pointed this out already, what makes your design your design infinitely better are the diagonals. Without only vertical tensioning elements you have nothing to prevent it from twisting around the vertical axis.
    Really really nice design for tensioning under the table, well done guys :)

    Here is a tip form a magician, if anyone is going to build this project I would love to see someone try using black thread instead of the fishing line.
    If you want thread to ‘disappear’ and seem invisible you want matte black and as thin as you can get away with.
    Fishing line is pretty shiny and reflects a lot of light. I think it’s designed for how light behaves in water. Either way it might be see through, but pretty bad at being invisible.
    Black absorbs lots of light, and if its thin line our brains sort of ‘fill in the blank’. Even if it’s in front of like a green patterned wallpaper.
    I think with black thread it would completely despair with just a little distance. I don’t know what distance, but from some distance you will see the table floating and see no trace of the string.
    Evan’s design with more strings also allows you to use thinner string, so the design also make the string more invisible.

    • @EjvindGEMDark
      @EjvindGEMDark 4 роки тому +80

      I think the issue would be with the tensile strength of thread. As someone who sews a lot... most thread really isn't that strong. I imagine you could get some, but you'd probably be better off using fishing line painted black.

      He really couldn't use the board as a lever as, when applying a load to the shorter end, the torque would simply lift up the longer end around the pivot point slung through the wire. That would apply a lot less force to the wire than the max load test they wanted to do. What they needed to do was go out and pick up a new gadget for the workshop: a force meter. That way they could (relatively) safely add weight to the end of the wire and measure exactly how much it could withstand before snapping (or figure out if it could withstand their expected max load without doing an absolute max load test).
      As a bonus E&K would then have a force meter and who knows what wacky hijinks they could get up to with one of those. Resin would probably be involved... ;)

    Some ideas I had : You could make the wires that go from the corners go diagonally to their opposite corners - that would mean they would all cross in the center which IMO would make it look even more impossible. To prevent wires from rubbing against each other you can offset them slightly so they don't exactly touch.
    To make it more stable I think you could put a weight on like you did when testing so the wires give a little and then tighten the tension rods while the weight is on.
    When the weight is removed again it should now be super tight and more stable.

    • @WJS774
      @WJS774 2 роки тому +4

  • @anthonyfreeman5858

    I just watched your video, the diagonal tension lines really stabilize the table. Better than some others I’ve seen, with one exception... I’ve seen one made completely out of metal. All of the tables parts were a square stock tubing & the tensioning “wires” were chains with turn-buckles to take out the slack. It was very strong, but did not have the diagonal tension so it still had some movement. Good job guys. Anthony
