Below is a listing of the sculptures David has
designed and created since 1975. Over the years he has used
different methods of powering the motion. The early pieces were
powered by harnessing the energy of a descending weight. Later
he switched to using a constant force spring. The power source
is included in the list.
Also noted is the size of the edition. This varies from piece
to piece and year to year. It takes several years to make an
entire edition and it's rare that he makes the full edition.
There are always new sculptures to add so something has to be
dropped.
The Portfolio contains photographs
of all sculptures still available. The archive listing below
contains listings of all sculptures - both those that are available
and those that are sold out. All sculptures are produced either
as limited edition sculptures or as one-of-a-kind work. After
Dave has built the number specified in the edition, he makes
no more of that design. These pieces are no longer available
from Wood That Works although some of the later ones may still
be available from the galleries.
As you scroll down the list you will notice that some design
names are linked. Click on the name to view a photo, detailed
description, and possibly an animation of the sculpture. If
the year link is selected you will be brought to a thumbnail
portfolio of sculptures made in that year.
