https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/6853bab7-1c7e-45a1-a6c4-f87db15e25d0 A project inspired by a friend in the theatre industry who was asking about the technicalities of creating a prop rose in a glass bell jar where the petals fall off in a controlled manner during the performance. My initial thoughts were a magnetic system or an assembly with boden style tubes to allow pins to be pulled to drop the petals, but then I decided to experiment with resistors and wax. This video is a good demonstration of how changing materials (higher temp wax and lighter petals) can change the results completely. The prop as shown is just a prototype. It would look more rose-like with more petals and a smaller connection hub. If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- http://www.bigclive.com/coffee.htm This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty. #ElectronicsCreators Wed, 15 Apr 2026 09:57:43 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://stream.echo6.co https://stream.echo6.co/client/assets/images/icons/icon-512x512.png https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/6853bab7-1c7e-45a1-a6c4-f87db15e25d0 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://stream.echo6.co/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
