The Mythical 1 Panel Ball

The worlds first(?) single panel ball. Panels: 1.

i love it sm because the process looks like perfectly un-peeling an orange

Babe wake up, new way of mapping the globe in 2d with minimal distortion just dropped

[HerbLopez]

I love these videos because you talk up the grueling journey and problems with making the ball then end the video by sayin “hey btw here’s 6 more”

[Jonathan-fuhx]

The dedication required to push through this project takes some serious balls...

[Karmala-kiue]

This intersection between advanced geometry and ball making feels so Da Vinci Steampunky

[skrillex]

I love that you literally just make balls

[E_Mihaya]

and on the way here, you found a cool design for a 4-panel ball

Can I just say? This is a masterfully edited short. I can tell there was a lot of discretion and work put into composition and timing along with just being an overall well-paced and informative yet concise vid. The field of editing for this sort of a format is still in its infancy, so its honestly so cool to see creators already developing such a sense of craft for it!

Its probably an aspect of what you produce that doesn't receive a lot of recognition, but it certainly reflects a lot of care.

You made the first, second third AND fourth single panel balls

[Skelter]

I never thought I'd care,
or ever even KNOW about a: "Single Panel Ball."
Thank You (?)

Bro I found this channel during lockdown when you were obviously doing what most of us were doing (Find things we enjoy) and 4 years later your still going strong. Not subbed but I will because I respect the effort and love you've found in doing these things.

[angelopouIos]

i love that you really fought for that 1 panel concept! it looks fantastic

[acat]

This is the one that made me subscribe! I love how you refused to settle for the four panel and stuck it thru to make it a legit one panel

My math teacher back in the late 90s actually made these as part of our math club. They were about the size of a tennis ball, but he gave each of us one for a job well done at a regional tournament! He used leather to make them, as he made cowboy boots and hats as a hobby! I have it sitting around somewhere in my storage bins.

at first i thought this was a Gömböc, the first 3D shape to have just one stable and unstable point of equilibrium

[nicstroud]

Technically, if you start with a ball, you can draw pretty much any single piece outline on it and you would have a single panel ball. No matter how crazy the shape.

I'm glad you didn't stop at the panel size issue and found a new way to cut panels.

[meerkatmatrix]

Can you do a series doubling the panels on a ball with each iteration? This could be the 1 panel ball so it's a good starting point

[ShadowNuke]

I'm blown away, every single time your videos pass by on my feed! I find myself watching them dozens of times before moving on! I've always love leather work, whether it be shoes, clothes, or balls. I'm in awe of your ingenuity and the things you manage to pull off! Keep it up!!
