Kinetic Sculpture

I’m a fan of what this guy does at www.woodthatworks.com. I’d like to do something similar with the help of a Glowforge. Maybe run it with a Raspberry Pi and some motors instead of spring drive.

Love Kinetic Sculptures like these, I’m looking forward to trying to make some of my own with my GF too!
A Pi is a good idea for driving it.

Does anyone have details on how the springs are created or where they are purchased?

A good place to start would be here:

Once you wrap your head around how tickers work, you’re all set.
