Giant quilt Made from dozens of old clothes my wife and I were too fat to fit in. @ Tainan, Taiwan instagram.com/p/CVhk5V7pZPh/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
Art Cart Scrap wood challenge for myself. All the wood was offcuts from previous endeavours. Made to fit snuggly under my desks out of the way. @ Tainan, Taiwan instagram.com/p/CF67AaiHWNI/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
LEGO Mini Caravan Cars Some demo cars I made for an activity I did with my students. The idea was to give every student a common base to build from then all the cars could be linked into a train or caravan at the end. instagram.com/p/CFFCbtenR_X/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
LEGO Atomic Spinny Thing. Saw something similar on LEGO Ideas and felt like replicating the concept with the pieces I had available. @ Tainan, Taiwan instagram.com/p/CEoIte9A3gg/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
LEGO NAND logic gate. #almostsuccessful Based on differential gears. Besides having one state not accounted for in the truth table, the thought of link several of these together for a full adder was… instagram.com/p/B7Ib_oKHdqX/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan

Rotational NAND gate. #fail Full analog nand gate. Everything works except for one state where both inputs are on. Built around four differential gears. #lego #analog #rotational #NAND #logic #gate @ Tainan, Taiwan instagram.com/p/B5K2hHnHCTo/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
Failed analog transistors and NOT gates. Experimenting with finding a small efficient Lego analog "transistor". #lego #analog #computer @ Tainan, Taiwan instagram.com/p/B4cP6wmnqqG/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
Transistor and NAND gate prototypes. #fail Most of this batch used a weight acting against an input force and gravity to function a switch. Not great but at least some ideas were played with to introduce powered… instagram.com/p/B4KOa6anFY6/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
Failed attempts at an absolute directional drive shaft. #fail Acts in the following manner.. Bidirectional input is converted to two single direction outputs. @ Tainan, Taiwan instagram.com/p/B4FV57VnQOg/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
2-bit Adder #fail Chained two full adders together. This is where friction really became too overwhelming. Need to redesign to include a buffer or some other gate or mechanism to reintroduce power into the… instagram.com/p/B4CKLZsH7oL/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
Rotational full adder. #fail For the last year I've put a lot of time into building components for an analog Lego computer. I've made many different components with varied success and failure. I am documenting all… instagram.com/p/B4B9rnCHAkE/… – at Tainan City, Taiwan
