Mobile Sculpture Making Tutorial

How to make a mobile- Tutorial I made this mobile years ago as a coffee table puzzle. Here I am just putting it together. The second half I try and break down the basic mechanics of how to make the different bends. There are three basic bends. 1. The element hanger -(attaches the wire to element) basically a simple loop. That is not offset. 2. The nib- attaches each armature to the fulcrum. The nib is bent perpendicular to the fulcrum and to the element hanger. After the bend is made you off set it 45degrees so it looks like a lollipop. Then you need to turn it sideways and tweak it down 45 degrees. 3. The fulcrum- placed at the balance point. Find the balance point, grab it with the pliers and bend each end upward and around the pliers (its anti-intuitive at first. There are many variations and other more complicated bends but you can do 90% with these.
