Assignment 2: Real Construction (Real Dome)

Week 4

Hi ppl =)
GC² has made it this time~!! oh yeah~!!!
we finally got our materials and this week we have did a great job.. it's time for the assembling of everything..
we thought that it'll take us ages but it seems that it's easier than it sounds and than we imagined it.. @@
the 3 of us went on with our idea after our sketching and measurements and so.
we decided to come up with 6 pentagons combined with bamboo and for the connectors, we will be using wires.. =)
to ensure that they really do hold properly, we applied hot glue gun unto it.. so hopefully it'll be stable~! 
and so we went on with the construction of our dome.
 

we came to this store for the materials... it seems that the owner raised the price after they received more customers.. wth?? =.=!!!
amazingly, we broke 1 saw and we got to get another new 1.. T.T violent us.. =p

thirsty.... @@

halfway there~!!!




hand pain coz of the wiring.. T.T
after we're done with our pentagons which looked something like this:
we went on with our base.... but unfortunately, the string wouldn't hold the bamboo tightly.. if we were to tie it now, after 3 weeks till the day of the test it's sure to be loose and eventually we'll end up drowning... =.=
so what we did was that we left the base there but it was in its appropriate measurement.
we decided to connect them after raya.. and hopefully it'll be on time.. fingers crossed~!!



talking bout shading, we're still figuring out of a way for the shade..
grace's idea was the umbrella method... =.=!!!! which will eventually disrupt the occupants in the dome.. hahax
so it's just for fun anyway..=p
and so we're done with our frame..
now wad's left is the shade and the base.. 
GANBATEH GC²~!!!! ^^

Teamwork is like Rojak. If there's not more than 1 variety, then it just won't work out. -Grace A.-
