parts list

Display ring based on 8ft ring made of 12 sections. 6 sections to produce 180º. The Uberfez used 2 sections to cover a 90º opening based on a smaller diameter to accommodate the wall taper.

Cases
1/2" MDF 4x8 sheet $17.89 enough to make 6 sets of bottoms and walls with a bit left over.
0.22" Plexi 24"x48" sheet $39.99 enough to squeeze out 3 display tops. The Uberfez used .09" plexi which wasn't very sturdy.

Legs
28" taper legs $5.99 per. We used 3 legs per cabinet before but if we bolted each section together we could shave off a few legs.
Threaded leg plate $1.49 each

Approx. $40 per cabinet. If we only make 3 of them with Plexi tops then we would save the $13.33 per Plexi top.

48" piano hinge $9.19 could be used to make the walls fold flat for storage.

Materials

4x8 sheet of 1/2" MDF
24"x 48" Plexi

4 28" table legs
4 flat mounting plates

I already have the template materials and extra hinges. The lighting will have to be dealt with later.

Fez Booth re-direct

Slight re-direct on our new booth.This year for Tiki Oasis 2006 the Fez booth will be inside.

While I still want to do TofuJoe's design we will have to start in stages.

The plan right now is to build a half ring of cabinets with the overhead elements to be worked out later.

The Concept

This year we are spinning off the fez booth into its own entity Fez-o-rama. With the Tiki Oasis location change we are looking at doing a new fez booth to go to San Diego.

One of the first suggestions for the new design was brought forth by TofuJoe of the Cult of the Eye:

I have to say I really dig this design.
