Golden Mean Callipers

Weird-Sky — Fri, 05 Oct 2012 03:49:12 GMT

Callipers for finding the Golden Ratio. The Golden Mean – one of the primary magic numbers. Its name is Phi Its number is 1.61803399 Its symbol is Φ The Golden Mean is the link between the nautilis shell, the sunflower and the pentagram. Phi is the root-note of the harmony that holds the universe together, The root-note of the harmony that connects the iPhone to the Acropolis. More information here http://www.goldenmeancalipers.com/ -- These calipers are not mass-produced. They’re lovingly hand-crafted by me… in my garage hammering the little brass rivets into place with a proper hammer, just like the proper Ancient Greeks used to do, but without the garage. -- There are three sizes, they are 1) small : 114 mm (measures 25 mm to 190 mm) : $35.00 2) medium : 180 mm (measures 35 mm to 320 mm) : $65.00 3) huge : 40 mm (measures 80 mm to 750 mm) : $75.00 I can make other sizes if requested.

Penrose tile coasters, clear acrylic, set of 8

PhaseSpaceDesign — Thu, 16 May 2013 17:16:49 GMT

Set of 8 (2 sets of 4 patterns) thick, transparent acrylic coasters, laser cut and engraved into the shapes of Penrose tiles. (Penrose tiles form an infinitely non-repeating pattern out of 2 basic shapes.) Sharp, clean lines and precision fitting. Pieces are irreglar, but roughly between 4.4–6.6" diameter. Due to the nature of Penrose tiling, there's no one way to fit them together. Photos show 0.354" thick acrylic. Glass of rosé not included ;) Please note, the pattern isn't designed to tile into an expandable, solid surface of Penrose tiles. Rather, the tiles are configured to lock together into interesting compositions that emphasize a dynamic, asymmetrical aesthetic.

Penrose tile coasters, set of 8

PhaseSpaceDesign — Thu, 16 May 2013 17:17:06 GMT

Set of 8 (2 sets of 4 patterns) coasters or tiles, in the shapes of Penrose tiles. (Penrose tiles form an infinitely non-repeating pattern out of 2 basic shapes.) Intended for laser cutting and engraving. Pieces are irreglar, but roughly between 4.4–6.6" diameter. Due to the nature of Penrose tiling, there's no one way to fit them together. Please note, the pattern isn't designed to tile into an expandable, solid surface of Penrose tiles.

Penrose tile coaster, clear acrylic, 1 of 4

PhaseSpaceDesign — Thu, 16 May 2013 17:17:51 GMT

A thick, transparent acrylic coaster, laser cut and engraved into the shapes of Penrose tiles. (Penrose tiles form an infinitely non-repeating pattern out of 2 basic shapes.) This is one of a series of 4 distinct patterns (see my showroom) that can be joined together in a variety of ways. Sharp, clean lines and precision fitting. Photo shows 0.354" thick acrylic. Roughly 6.8x5.4". Please note, the patterns in this series aren't designed to tile into an expandable, solid surface of Penrose tiles. Rather, the tiles are configured to lock together into interesting compositions that emphasize a dynamic, asymmetrical aesthetic.
