Lego Maquette

While Brandy was out and about for a mental break, Ethan and I had our first Lego night together!

Although this is a very rough version of the idea, the Technic Legos helped me work out some of the mechanical problems of a larger wood sculpture that I have been working on. The basics of it are that by turning the small wheel (bottom right) the four blades will open simultaneously. Thus creating an adjustable opening (at the top) to allow light to enter into the center of the piece, similar to an aperture in a camera.
