tada

so I changed 1 or 2 things about my design and finally it all worked.



there are only 2 instead of 3 parts on the top. With 3 it was too big anyway and now it also works better with the curves.
Now there are also slots in the seatparts to keep it all together.
And this time there are semicircles in the middle.

first try

ok,now I know what Justin meant when he said,we gonna need more than one try.....

first it all seemed to work pretty good.....


but when I was putting it all together I had kind of a feeling that I will have to do it all again...


there is no way in slotting in the third part of the seat, because it's a curve.aha!
and when I thought I could just leave out the semicircles in the middle parts,because you won't see them anyway,well I was wrong,because the seat will crack.
It also could be quite hard putting the seat into the endbits, unless you have 3 or 4 hands.




did I already mention,that the whole thing just didn't work? interlowhat system?!

second mock up

this is my second mock up.It still has the curves but the whole design is now based on a system. It's already very strong in the thin card.
In the final stool,some details are gonna be changed.the seat won't overlap.



this is what the seat will look like



some more tries



1:1 of the edge in X-Board

another try with X-Board

here is another try with X-Board.
I like that you see the edge of the material on the top.

first 1:1 mock up

this is my first 1:1 mock up. I stuck with the idea of concept II putting the X-Board in an organic shape. Well ok,this was TOO organic and didn't work at all.

some try in Xanita

concept III
