Massive Delays!

Wow, lost a bit of momentum around here! I spent most of the last two weeks moving stuff around and working on fezzes so little was accomplished on the actual booth. I hope to return to the process soon.

Base Build

The challenge with this is to build it without needing much outside assistance and yet make it look like it was done by someone more evolved than a pack of marmosets.

Note that I did not say a pack of baboons. It is important that one recognizes their limitations.

ohhh, 3D!

so I decided I would mock up the umbrella base in Google Sketch because I was tired of trying to explain what was in my head.

It's the first thing I have actually created in Google Sketch so don't expect much.

The goal here is to have it both extremely stable and portable. So that should be easy

Weekend Plans

We have a bit of a challenge this weekend. It is the annual Grand Prix down here and that means there will be no parking available and the streets will be filled with race fans.

Anyway, that means it is time for us to get out of town. I don't know how much time we will have to work on this but I do hope to at least take photos and layout some artwork for it.

Planning

this past week was set aside for planning. (now that is not entirely true, we expected to do other things but we only accomplished the planning part) We built the current booth and check to see how much room we had to move inside. It will be cozy but the lady in charge of vending says he is happy with it, so who am I to question that?

Hopefully we will soon get to the decorating stage and have more photos to share.

fabric prepped

All of the fabric has been prepped for the next fitting. The top has been sewn into 6 panels and the edges have been finished. The 6 front panels are also hemmed and reinforced. Next up is either a second fitting or surface decoration. It just depends on which I feel like tackling first.
