How to build a balsa wood bridge

[MrIanFu]

6d zerg rush??

[mvkvo]

Im gonna be honest, im only playing for the music while i build my bridge.

[mvkvo]

Jow did you glue the joints in place. Because im doin this same project (bass wood)

[etheangel2220]

false advertising! how could this have been down in fifteen minutes when the video it self is around 15 minutes and is sped up?!

[ItsEmmalicious]

im trying to find the how to video we watched in class, it looks like its from the 80s but it isnt because i know one of the kids in the video lol, but i found this & the 1st peice of music is what i skated to, so im watching your video :) lol

[YupTanya]

SO HARD ! o:

[fatkidincoat]

made this for wood tech..hoping it holds more then 13 pounds cause we only got 9 sticks of 36in long of wood

[NateAlex10]

watch?v=CugnF3fgHi4

[DollFaceIncorporated]

weird... my friend did the same thing..

wasnt close to winning...

[2010Nodari]

xaxax i like when he says xaxa i wasted 3 minuit's of your life

[2010Nodari]

@postrusters dude we are looking this video to learn not to see the result

[danielwills93]

where did you get that balsa wood strips from?

Great stuff :)

[superparker452]

beef jerky is indeed tasty

[Approvedjoey117]

your a fucking piece of shit u faggot ass jew head nerd

[ItsNotAllBlacknWhite]

Hey this is cool actually! How much weight did it hold??

[IGotHammer]

This is not Sparta

[BatoLoco97]

this was actually not 15 minutes

[lookguy2222]

what is the measurement

[governmentcheese411]

preglue flat strips on the square cut strips to form a long sandwich. then cut in same manner you did for vid.the end result will give you AMAZING looking I-beams also if you boil wood strips they will become very very flexible. bend in to position and allow to dry. this will open all kinds of possibilities and make your structures much more solid at the same time. hope this was helpful. remember...you dont have to build it bigger or better. just build it and let fun take its course.

[Giovan95]

Awesome. I'm bout' to make one in my computer class

[strunway]

maverick

[xxh4ny0uxx]

check out my bridge video!!!

[juliop101]

we work with drafting to awesome

[0Anynamewilldo0]

the first song is on soo many videos whats it called?

[juliop101]

Clubbed to Death by Rob Dougan

[barod1]

so much for 15m but it was cool i have to say

[greenleaftreefrog]

wow that was cool

[camillalalalalaa]

I HATE BALSA WOOD D: !

[TYLERZAJAC]

what tool did you use to cut the balsa wood?

[15commandments]

Most likely an X-Acto knife.

[TheKamikira]

its called an exact-o-knife

[TheKamikira]

exact-o-knife

[dasickness4567]

im doing this in my science class right now thnx for the ideas cause i get a pizza party with friends if i win

[ChickenDun]

hey guys, I am doing this assignment. Do you know where I can buy balsa wood material like this around bremerton?

[TheKamikira]

you should use basswood instead

[governmentcheese411]

basswood is harder to work with an exact o knife and balsa is much easier to blend in to many different scenes because of its more neutral pigment and wood grain. tree,patio,i-beam,light pole. all come out much better with balsa.G-scale and bigger dont look to bad with basswood but still, balsa easier on the hands and the knife blades.

[BRAD92807]

we did this in foundation of tech' class

[drahazar]

lol i want to a uni open day and we made a balsa wood bridge in 45 mins that held 10 kilos (22 pounds. It was NOWHERE near as complex as this but it did the job. It's prettier though :)

[jtizzlefurizzle21]

wheres your rc car?

[pyrosplodeyflames]

Pretty cool, too bad they wouldn't let us use that design in Tech class.

[diguy145]

I built a structure that was 8.5 inches tall that held 980 pounds and weighed 13.1 grams. Not a bridges but the same concept. It was made out of Balsa wood.

[175myles]

lol just use Microsoft paint or whatever lol its just as easy

[LibanShia]

NNNNNEEEEERRRRDDDDD

[Handgun126]

hes a nerd cuz he can engineer? im doing the same project in engineering class now. your probably to young to take such a course but w/e

[LibanShia]

no, im calling the actual guy a nerd, not the course. check out his "wii light saber" video and ull see wat im talking about

[Handgun126]

i like star wars =O well the games like the force unleashed the movies are ehh. But w/e idk how he did that wiimote thing it depends in how he did it that can label him as a nerd lol. But w/e. I gotta work on a bio engineering project now peace

[lillhobojoe]

wow

i would use liek a hto guel gun to hodl it together beacuse i dres very very fast but that gule is jsut as good i guess

[icesword139]

wow that bridge held only 23.. were doing bridges in our class and there simple wood bridges and they weight less than 25 grams and a guy got his to go to 165 pounds of sand lol try beating that =P

[poodlemcdoodle]

its the wood u use balsa being the least dense of all

[illinbed]

according to wiki autocad cost $4,000 XD but thats wiki so who knows

[AsianChipmunk]

you can download autocad from chinese sites. but you gotta know how to read them. best if you find someone that knows chinese

[BraBra741]

can u send me the instruction

[niamat12]

hey.... dat bridge was great.... i wud luv 2 try 2 make it myself, but i dont have da program 2 make an outline.... so can u send me da programme within 24 hours of this message plz.. i wud appreciate it.. thanx.

[007maarten007]

watch my video search for Trampo maarten or Down falling man or maarten en deuren, xD

[melencholy345]

HEY BUDDY!!!! send me the instructions!! please!

[SirWilliamLee]

Um all you gotta do is buy some balsa wood, Gorilla Glue, wax paper, and an X-acto Knife. You then need a program like Bridge Maker or AutoCAD to make an outline of the bridge you're gonna make.

Print it out and put your wax paper over it and cut your wood with the knife according to the outline while glueing the pieces together.

It helps if you uses pins to hold the paper in place while working. Hope that helps.

[bizerk2o6]

lol balsa wood bridge i made in class held 44 pounds

[hybridkev]

whaw that last comment was half way through the vid but now that its over i now know u acctualy got me to stare at my screen for 14 mins and 36 seconds...well that was a waste of some spare time but o well

[SirWilliamLee]

Mission accomplished :P

[hybridkev]

lol

[hybridkev]

lol ok ok i have to say i might think of building something out of balsa wood for a science projct and maybe just to see what it taste like =P

[ChristianJavan]

What's the music song name?

[SirWilliamLee]

The first song is Clubbed to Death by Rob Dougan, the 2nd is Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve Pipe and the 3rd is Fever Dream from the 300 soundtrack.

[purpleysnail]

i wonder what balsa wood tastes like

[TheKamikira]

crap

[Muddermuks]

lol same, haha, the comments were the best!

[zerolohland]

lol i watched just for the comments
