Animated Cogs, Keys, Pot and Handcuffs

A selection of mechanical and moving metal bits. My first attempt at making spinning cogs was a disaster because the animation gave the impression that the cogs were moving backwards and forwards and not spinning. Until recently the animations had a white background because when we first started we were not aware that a transparent background was possible, we now know differently and think that we have modified all animations to have a transparent background. These metal bits, keys, saucepans etc are models that Dave has created some time or the other and have been made into animation. Some were particularly requested or suggested.

The old key was made like the one we had when we rented an old stone house in a remote village up in the hills of Cyprus.
Dave thought it was so unusual that he took a photograph of it. It would not take much of a lock picker to open that door.
The pot was made as a model for a kitchen CAD program and the hand cuffs were requested by a friend of Dave's.
She has never said why she wanted them and we often wonder.
