It was concrete sculpting day and the team worked together to complete six small but complex pieces. It was fun to transform the steel armatures into recognizable and detailed objects. We also sent off the first three pieces which were finished last week. Elsewhere in the shop new frames are being welded and wired for the next batch of features. The scenery in the shop is changing on a daily basis.
Forklift Rodeo Champion
Peter was awarded the non-coveted Forklift Rodeo Champion of 2018 trophy today. While safety is always of utmost concern in our shop, on rare occasions things still do happen. He managed to do a reverse wheely with some serious and permanent marks in the ceiling to bear witness of the event. Thankfully, no one was hurt nor was anything else damaged. Lesson learned by all.
Introducing...
Today, I captured a little video of the newly installed smoke effects for the IDEAMATIC 2. As I edited the video for today's blog I decided it would look cool as a newsreel from the 'authentic' date on the manufacturer's plate which is affixed to the back of the marvellous machine. Enjoy!
