Main support table and water supply lines. Each kinetic component required a dedicated, valved internal supply line to trickle water into the collecting trough at the extremity of the tipping components. Once enough water collected in each trough, it would tip forward, spill out its contents, and, with the weight of the water gone, gravity would tip the component back and reset the process.
