Harvard Tables-
Construct sturdy rolling table that could support an actors weight.
-The goal was to modify a swiveling salon chair so it could be tilted on to its back legs and wheeled away, while still keeping the swivel base and foot pump seat lift.
-The solution I came up with was to take 2 threaded shank smart casters and welding them still, so they became dumb ones. The off center wheel position on smart casters was essential to allow the back legs to function as a proper pivot point.
-The three front feet were then fitted with fabricated ball shaped feet the same height as the casters.
- I was tasked with constructing a manicure station that could both be rolled on stage and and support two actors on swiveling stools.
- I was also asked to build the station around a preexisting plastic cabinet that would be reinforced to support weight.
- MDF construction, needed to able to rotate and stay in position.
-Sanded smooth and Bedazzled.
-Main shapes cut out on CNC.
- Shapes connected to support structure, reinforced to take weight, and faced with Bendi Board.
- Filled and Sanded smooth to remove plywood texture.
-It was later decided that the chaise was too short and 1 foot must be added. Cut in half with steel bars added to create a new support structure.
