It was a tension-filled time at Maker Faire last weekend, as visitors to Momaths Tensegrity Maxed Out booth learned to use tension, compression, and rubber bands to create free-standing sculptures. The rubber bands compress the wooden struts, keeping them inside a net of continuous tension so that theyre evenly balanced and dont touch. These cool constructions nabbed MoMath an Editors Choice and a Best in Class award! Did you see MoMath at Maker Faire? Drop a note in the comments section and let us know! Thanks to Maker Faire for a great weekend, and to all the volunteers who made this possible.
