This project experiments with the equilibrium of cantilevered masses. The system utilizes the compressive forces between the balls and blocks and the tension of strings to yield equilibrium. The utilization of blocks and balls allows for a variety of compositions in both parallel and perpendicular organizations. Each composition required a variable tension across differing lengths of strings to maintain the equilibrium of the blocks on the balls.
