I heard about these on an episode of QI and thought they sounded interesting.

Bloody Hell ! :shock: !

Hats off to this Dutch guy because his design skills are truly awesome.

Saw these a few years ago. Very impressive

Fascinating and amazing engineering.

You can always have a go at making simple kinetic structures and maybe then build you skills and expertise to the level shown in the video clip. There are useful publications available.

It so happens I offered a book titled Creative Kinetics by Frost in the 'for sale' section recently ( for-sale-model-carving-books-and-plans-t70703.html ) which is still available. You can see some reviews on Amazon - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Creative-Kineti ... d_sxp_f_pt
