This bracelet and necklace set is also a fully functional drawing tool. Just remove the pendant from its special hook-shaped bail and hold the bangle bracelet down against your drawing surface. Put the tip of a pen through one of the pendant's holes and use the pen to roll the pendant around the inside of the bracelet. Try different holes to see how the pattern changes. I've specially designed the gearing on the Spirosketch to make for a smooth and comfortable inner surface on the bangle. Bangle measures 3.25" across, with a 2.25" inner diameter. Pendant comes on an 18" rubber cord. Note: All of the designs you see in these pictures were drawn with the Spirosketch. If you'd prefer other colors for the bangle and/or pendant, please contact me and I'll see what I can do.<br></br><img alt="Spirosketch_new_3_showroom_image" src="http://static1.ponoko.com/design_images/images/10871/ad9ccd6c-e47e-3b76-bccb-90bb7a160785/spirosketch_new_3_showroom_image.jpg?1303358271" /> Thu, 21 Apr 2011 04:01:49 GMT http://www.ponoko.com/showroom/PolymathDesignLab/3263?time=Wed+Aug+05+17%3A58%3A02+UTC+2009 PolymathDesignLab http://www.ponoko.com/showroom/PolymathDesignLab/2902 This intricate bowl is based on the lovely design of a type of tiny algae called diatoms. These phytoplankton come in all sorts of incredible shapes, with silicate cell walls (called frustules) that show nearly ornate patterns of pores under a high-powered microscope. The first edition of this bowl is currently on display at the Phylogenetic Museum at the University of Jena, Germany as part of a Diatom-focused exhibition. To make this bowl, the pattern of one form of diatom was hand drawn, then laser cut from white acrylic. The shape is then heat formed into a bowl with a depth of approximately 2" and measuring around 7.5" diagonally. Attractive and modern enough to stand on its own, it is also sized perfectly to hold things like business cards, keys, or candy. Want another color? Just let me know your preference and I'll set it up- this can be made in any of the 3mm acrylics that Ponoko carries! This will be cut when you order and shipped to me for forming, so please allow 2-4 weeks minimum. Thanks! <br></br><img alt="Diatom_bowl_white_slate_showroom_image" src="http://static0.ponoko.com/design_images/images/10871/85505cb5-964d-3ca5-a2c4-fc5de2739d5d/diatom_bowl_white_slate_showroom_image.jpg?1242786391" /> Wed, 25 Nov 2009 06:01:55 GMT http://www.ponoko.com/showroom/PolymathDesignLab/2902?time=Tue+May+05+14%3A05%3A00+UTC+2009 PolymathDesignLab
