Constructing the final model – mass production

The morning started with mass production of different components needed for the final model. Making the poles and the fences were a time consuming process, but is needed to make the final structure.

For the tent we used the method we had tried out on Wednesday, which was wooden pieces with pins on top. And by wrapping thread around the pins and stretching the thread from pole to pole, it created enough tension for the structure to stand up. f3f6

For the walls we made firm structures, that is easy to make, but will not function as it will on a bigger scale. So the walls are just to show how it will look like. (We have a bigger model that is on a 1:20 scale which works as the wall would work in real life.)

After numb and sore fingers from cutting with a scalpel and glue over most of our clothes we constructed most of the fences needed in the model.
