Legendary Disney Imagineer Rolly Crump with a few of his kinetic mobiles and sculptures, c.1963. Incredibly cool.
From Popular Science Monthly, 1954...
1. Cut abstract shapes from cardboard or light-gauge sheet metal.
2. For the arms, bend the ends of soft 16-gauge wire into loops and attach the cut-out shapes.
It's all about balance.

Way Cool!
you're so right - incredibly cool! thanks for sharing!
I love all of Rolly Crump's designs. I wish I had gotten to see the Tower of the Four Winds, but ever so slightly before my time.
Where on earth did you find that?
this is absolutely great!
I'd like to try this (using plastic).
The picture isn't clear to me how the arms attach to one another.
Any help out there?
I have this book too. Its awesome.
Thanks for posting it.
