LAY OUT
My final concept. laid out on the actual x-board size given, which is 1220 m x 1830 mm x 10 mm. Does not waste that much x-board, still has plenty of remains. Could be used to make another 2 sets of the curved foundations.
START THE MACHINE!!
Curve is achieved, pretty neat!
This is what i did!
Next, cutting the shape for the base foundation. I wanted it curved, but instead of peeling off the top surface, i used the method Justin told me, which to cut the x-board in strips then fold it. Worked perfectly and was not too hard to do
The foundation is done! stands perfectly, locking systems at the top work as i expected, now into the second stage!
Dimensions had to be very precise, otherwise, wouldn't close perfectly
Started out by cutting the top cover. Pretty straight forward affair, not much fuss, done in one try, although cutting out the joining part wasn't as easy as i thought. Managed to get this stage done in less than 2 hours, the joining cut isn't done too neatly.
