The Paint Pendulum Concept Aims to Create 3D Printed Art in a Day I Envisioned Building Something with a Short Print Time So Kids Can Complete the Project Within a Day. To Get the Pendulum Moving, You Need Height and Stability. You'll Find Printer Settings Below. Print Settings Printer Brand: MakerBot Printer: MakerBot Replicator (5th Generation) Rafts: Not Necessary Supports: Yes Overview and Background A Pendulum is an Object Hung from a Point So It Can Swing Freely Under Gravity's Pull. A Classic Example of a Pendulum Is a Playground Swing. Pendulums Work by Transferring Kinetic Energy to Potential Energy Via Gravity, Converting Mechanical Energy. Lesson Plan and Activity Questions to Ponder How Does a Pendulum Function? What Are the Components of a Pendulum? What Is Equilibrium? What Is Repetition? What Variables Can Affect Design (Length of String, Mass, or Shape of Bob)? How Do Science and Art Collaborate? What Patterns Can You Learn About? Other Things That Incorporate a Pendulum Examine Artists Like Tom Shannon and Tina Schweiger Who Have Incorporated Pendulums into Their Work. Experiment with Different String Lengths to See How the Bob Reacts and Paint is Distributed. References Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendulum
