Slinky pendulum/Luke Jermay

Postby Jobasha » Dec 27th, '11, 20:18



I have memories of someone mentioning Luke Jermay using a skinky as a pendulum for stage work. Does anyone know if this is mentioned in any of his works or in anyone elses material?

Well, I've had a good look and can't find it anywhere. That makes me think it's in 3510 which I no longer own.

Edit: Just had a google, and Alakazam's blurb for 3510 does indeed mention the use of a slinky as a pendulum

I should have remembered that one. . . :oops:

The bit was done well before Luke. . . I want to say that Koran used it but not positive. Luke is the one that made it a steady part of a show and not just a bit piece, or at least that's how I understood the story.

Thanks to both of you. Thinking of possibly doing some stage work and think that might allow me to do some of my usual close up still.
