The sculpture is a series of twelve 1:50 worm gears, with each gear reducing 1\/50th of the previous gear. With 12 gears, the final gear ratio is a mind boggling 244,140,625,000,000,000,000 : 1 (244.14 quintillion to 1). With the first gear spinning at 200RPM it would take over 2 TRILLION years for a single revolution at the end of the machine, so the final drive shaft can be embedded in concrete or plaster.<\/p>\n<p>I emailed Arthur Ganson a link to this page and he replied &#8220;looks FANTASTIC!&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thingiverse.com\/thing:51248\"><br \/>Printed Machine with Concrete<br \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>(<i>via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jwz.org\/blog\/\">JWZ<\/a><\/i>)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"1\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/boingboing\/iBag\/~4\/3ZtICfnqJ3M\" width=\"1\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Print your own &#8220;Machine With Concrete&#8221; and produce a gear ratio of 244.14 quintillion to 1: A fanciful post to Thingiverse from 3DTOPO allows you to print out your own version of Arthur Ganson sculpture Machine with Concrete , a system of wormgears that produces a gear-ratio of 244.14 quintillion to 1.
