Kinetic Man Sculpture Dedication

Lots of kids, big and small, showed up for the ribbon-cutting ceremony of Kinetic Man. There were free ice-cream sandwiches for everyone...

and everyone got a turn to make K-Man move. I think the little kids like the fact that it's just a little bit hard for them to turn the handle because it makes them really feel like they've accomplished something.

For more photos from yesterday's event, go to RuBert Studios blog.

Oh, that last picture freaked me out a bit. All those big gears on the left of the picture look so tempting to touch and I was worried about pinched fingers. But, when I checked out the photos on your other blog, I could clearly see that the gear box is enclosed. What a relief. (I can't imagine why I doubted this in the first place.) Kinetic Man is incredible. Some day when we're passing through the mid west -- it's inevitable -- we'll be sure to stop! Can you save some ice cream sandwiches for us?

Yes, there's a super strong plastic called Lexan all the way around the gear box, so everyone can see but no one can touch.

No, I don't think there will be any ice cream sandwiches left. :)

I LOVE K-Man! He seems like so much fun! Will he ever come to D.C.?
