1:2 CARD MODEL

The thing i like about this design is i can have the aluminium (2-3mm) laser cut and then experiment with what i will use to hold the legs together (either use spacing or not) and also what screws will look good.

I will also need to look at what i will put at the bottom of the legs.

It will be one part cut three times to make this stool as each side is exactly the same.

Paper 1:5 Model

I tested the folds and design with paper first to make sure the flat pack plan would work as i had hoped.....

FINAL DESIGN CONCEPT

START OF NEW CONCEPT

WORKSHOP EXPERIMENTATION

FOR THE WEEKS IN THE WORKSHOP I LOOKED AT BENDING AND FOLDING ALUMINIUM SHEET TO SEE HOW MY STOOL DESIGN WOULD WORK. 

I STARTED ALSO LOOKING AT ALTERNATE WAYS I COULD CONSTRUCT MY DESIGN.
