running out of material

Finally a nice day, and we managed to work quite fast on the last missing parts. At least we were faster then material lasted, so we had to stop laminating in the early afternoon, as we ran out of resin :(


Reordered, but this will take about 5 days to be here …

Anyway, work continues as we hafe to work on some shuttering tomorrow.

more rain and our plan B

It continued to rain, but we decided to not let this stop us … plan B is to work under a tarp as long as necessary. So hopefully the weather will get better tomorrow, or at least stay dry for longer - fingers crossed!

weather forecast: wait!

Started to build the biggest piece of the statue, but just as we were about to finish the first layer, it started to rain …

So we have to wait for the next dry day to continue

:(

Laminating a big bit of whatever

Today we started to work inside the mould, trying to find a way to laminate the statue properly. Thanks to Nick, Kristian, Christian and Mac for helping me to get this bit of work done!


Now we're hoping for good wheater to keep able to work on it this week - fingers crossed!

sealing the mould and preparing for more

Building the statue ist scheduled for next week, so we had to seal the concrete surface of the mould. So thanks to Nick we finished that in no time today - a fresh coat of Sikafloor ProSeal.


And me moved some material to prepare the plattform for the statue. I'm sure the final location will look ace!

Skatepark Radstadt - Mould/Bowl finished

As posted previously, the bowl is done! I worked on some details the last days, including tuning the coping, which is now super fast. So here's the latest pic of the project …


We still need to seal the concrete, so it might be closed for another 2 days to dry. This is likely to happen next week, if the weather stays dry. Please respect signs and works, so everyone can enjoy the final piece asap!

Lemming Bowl 2010 - spring cleaning

The lemming is back from hibernation - I cleaned the bowl today. So it'll be open/skateable for about 3 weeks now, before we enter the final stage of the project.


So enjoy spring, and please keep the place clean! Cheers!
