ive started a new college course. for the first project we were given a plank of rough sessile oak from the woodschool in the scottish borders and an fm radio. we have to design and make a structure which will support a person and it has to be interactive in some way.
mine is a log which rolls to adjust the volume.
sketchup model
one each
i cut it into 15mm strips and glued them into into a board like this.
then the board is cut into ten sides
apart from saw draft this all the waste.
the finish is rough to allude to the rough bark of a log. im not thicknessing the sides as i cannot afford the waste. if i had the log would be about 270mm high as opposed to the 370 it is now
