The Plan Rack.
Our office had plans. A lot of plans.
So I designed a rack to store them in. I first created an extremely rough sketch which I didn't even bother to keep or take a picture of. Then I did a CAD drawing:
I put the .dxf file on a DVD-RW, gave it to Oscar downstairs to run through the CAD machine, then voila:

The Cedar House finally.
So this weekend, I spent most of my time working on a portfolio to put together for applications. I finished the entire Cedar House, and have posted some of the slides from the portfolio collection. These are in no way final, and I am probably going to change the design around a few times before I actually decide on what to get printed. Ugh. Stressful. I am excited to just get it over with.

oops
Yikes. It's been way too long since I posted on this blog. I have been busy though, I haven't been slacking off...too much anyways.
This weekend I got a chance to sketch some awful pictures, but I also managed to get a section detail completed. Awesome. So here:
So after I completed this scaled drawing, which I didn't bother putting dimensions on for aesthetic reasons, I had to make the section in sketchup, which actually took longer, and a lot more clicks of the "hide" button then I would have liked. But what can you do? It didn't take too long, and I managed to get a pretty good shot. Granted, I can't take it in 2D, so the 3D aspect is still there, but you'll get the idea.
So, yes. I removed the tree and replaced it with an oversized fountain. Modern, and the trickle would be kind of soothing, wouldn't it.
On a somewhat unrelated note, I have two important staples on my desk: An Einstein action figure and a miniature camel (made of camel hide, not a real camel) from Morocco, whose name is appropriately Paulo. Whenever I am stuck designing, creating, writing, or finding something to do, I inevitably wind up staring at them until an idea pops into my head. This time, Einstein gave me the idea for the square fountain. So if you don't like it...blame Einstein.
