Who are these strange fellows?

My photo
Manbench Industries; Purveyors of general mayhem since 1994, a blog to follow the crazed, possibly deranged projects and emotive musings, of an undergraduate engineer, and an apprentice organ builder who have always felt they were born in the wrong age. Follow us as we, re-write history, learn lost skills, discover strange new worlds, break things, rant at things, mend things, make new things and generally find ways of passing the day instead of doing "proper work" !

If theres one thing everybody needs, its a ball measuring device....

A device for measuring the diameter of spheres to a reasonable degree of accuracy, not much more to say really, I made this one for a school physics experiment, and its shown here with a charming man  inside for lack of a sphere in the local vicinity. (Note how I cunningly avoided saying 'lack of balls'!)


2 bits of acrylic, some steel rod, a broken rule, and 2 minutes on a pillar drill, and you can have your very own!
