One of our flagship projects has been the Newton's Cradle. Traditionally seen on a small scale as a desktop toy, we decided to go big.

Really big.

 

Originally built in 2007, we've learned quite a bit about bowling balls in the process. Initially made with used bowling balls, we realised fairly quickly the balls needed to be new without any holes. We would like to thank 900Global.com for the most recent set of bowling balls for the cradle - centre balanced without any holes for the most ideal sphere for a Newton's Cradle.

 

Below are a few other videos relating to this project.
