Coaches

This week I wanted to work on coaches because I've actually worked with road signs before and i know how to attach/ detach signs from posts or whatever they are stuck to. Their was one other in the group, chris, but neither of us are spatial so the visualising of what we are trying to do might not be fantastic. I went ahead and gave him the actual measurements of signs, instead of the shrunken down version of the week before. I also went ahead and loved at how structurally it could be made and how all the signs would be attached.











These are the ingredients really. I proposed the idea of building the large letter forms like you would a house, with a framework first (made out of recycled wood). Then apply plywood, paint it. Then work out where you want all your signs, drill holes where need be to bolt the sign in and bobs your uncle. Except for the name blades which would need to have the channels/sign fix or whatever it called attached to the back so they could be at the same height level as the rest of the signs, and easier to attach as well.
