Overview

Spend 4.5 hours fabricating

Review your notes from class regarding central pillar ideationexternal link , LED placement, pixel mapping, and discussions with Hepp. The group formed a consensus around the general concept of “Big Tree” as well as the “3 Turns.” Review the ideation sketches linked hereexternal link , to refresh you memory about your ideas as well as your peers ideas. Be true to the concept but take risks and experiment as well.

Remember that the elevator is 47" wide, so everything needs to be narrower than that. The plan is to make pieces that slot together to form a greater whole. Make sure to leave space for attachment points as well as steel armature reinforcement.

Post updates and photos to the class group fabrication discussion threadexternal link . This way we can keep track of what everyone is doing.
