The cube is complete!

The cube is as ready as we can get it. Everything else we need to do will happen on site. Keep you fingers crossed that it will all go together smoothly. We've learned a few lessons in measurement and materials over the last few days. Steel is not nearly as rigid as I thought. When this is all said in done we'll write up a recap on the construction- maybe even include a post work session stretching regiment- our bodies are in a fair amount of pain. The cube is trying to get the better of us, we'll see how the weekend goes.
Here's a pic of the complete cube (it's still upside down and still has the protective paper on it.)

Here's a detail from the inside.

Drilling the plexiglas.


We also worked on the backdrop that Jackie will shoot infront of at the festival.
(It looks like it's snowing, but really the shop is just dusty.)


The weather looks like it should be nice- although the storm that hit late last night certainly has me a little fearful. I couldn't sleep thinking about how our cube was going to hold up to forceful winds and driving rain (not to mention lightening). Forcast says sun- again, keep those fingers crossed.

We are shooting a few pics on 2nd Street this evening from 5-8pm (last opportunity before the actual festival).
