Cardboard 1:1 Mock Up


Quick Mock up 1:1 model of my chair/stool design. Using multiple sheets of cardboard stuck together to get the correct thickness is just a pain in the ass to put it plainly. I found that it was still flimsy and didn't give a good indication whether or not this idea would work. What was good about this though was to get a sense of scale and proportion. It also did support me when sitting gently on it.

Things is need to figure out still:
  • correct dimensions
  • how much card to cut away to get correct angles when bending
  • bracing
  • the exact spots when the top part can slot into the base
Most importantly however is not to slice my finger off like some people have in the last few weeks!!
