One of my Uni papers -Just finished

[b16a2]

Well just completed this today, and pretty pleased with it so i though id post some pics up, F'n sweet paper, and so easy compared to the rest just had to do full working drawing, costings, and manufacturing report then make it - Ive still goa bit of work to do like stain the wood, polish the stainless and re-align everything, only downside to it all is thats $550 of materials there and forget consumable and the time to make it

[trend.whore]

Looks mad, why is it so expensive though?

[mr_tec]

2" stinless mandrel bends = hell aexpensive

all up stainless was close to 400, then good qaulity marine ply, stain, stainless sheet for the end tabs, stainless bar for tabs you cant see, and ove $60 on fasteners at trade price

That is sweet dude. I'd be super proud and stoked to design something like that and then make it.

You should do the math and see if you can put it in production and sell it at like Freedom or the like. I can see rich people with too much money buying that and lounging beside their pool like this.

That is really nice build quality and a great design.

Wheres a the model modeling it??

[MMJA]

That looks pretty cool, love the weld work on the frame. I reckon it wouldn't be a bad idea if you welded some armrests on it. Looks really arty like a sculpture but practical.

Mad conversation starter "My lounger can withstand 50 billion psi"

[Kelsonmassif]

it kinda looks like an awkward position? i dunno need to get a pic of someone sitting on it man, props on the work, looks pro as

[DURTYEF3]

I thought its rather ergonomic. Anyways, flip it over and you can bend your missus over it too.

[SLOTEG]

2 questions:
is it comfy?
and can you rock in it? lol nothing beats a good rocking chair

[gazmaster]

That looks comfy!

Seating position reminds me of a driving sim gamers chair.

Nice work

[lowproz]

i can see that being turned into a sled

[BUMP]

That looks wicked sweet dude.

Wish i had pictures of all the custom stuff ive done with fibreglass, but dont.

[David R]

Looks great, but why use marine ply?

[Colza]

Good ply looks mean when you stain it, and marine ply because it has to be outdoors.

Nice work man

Again, why? AFAIK marine ply isn't even treated, it has a different kind of glue that softens when heated (usually by steam) so it can be curved to shape for making boats, and its designed to be fibreglassed over. For outdoor use you'd want H3 treated ply.

[Bananaman]

Looks sweet, Did you look at getting dome head bolts so they didn't stick up. (mind you if the missus slips over one and catches her bikini top that could be worth it)

[Soichiro]

It's actually a really cool design concept which I think is the idea. I like the raw simplicity of it, welds and bolts is what makes it real in this soft sanitised world.

Also kinda along the lines of what lowproz said, I'd love to see weels and an engine on it just for kicks.

id donate myself for testing the sled down the hill.. damn thatd be fun.. only issue is i dont wanna bail and take out one of the trees haha..

[KLRVTC]

Doesn't it fall over backwards when you lean back in it?
