Driving off into the sunset!

We got a last minute job Friday, so with the t.v show build in full swing, it was a weekend at the shop.
The last minute job was for a commercial, but that's all I know. They wanted a 13" blue cube. They were able to provide a Pantone number for the color, which happened to be the exact same color of the light blue PVC we use. As luck would have it, we had a sheet in stock!
It needed to be strong and lightweight, as they'll be writing on it and tossing it around.
I drew the file in Aspire, just 6- 13" squares. These got mitered on our mitering jig with the little Makita router.

With squares cut on our Techno cnc, and drawn in Aspire, I know that everything is dead square, making the assembly very easy. A simple tape hinge holds it all together until the glue got applied.

I reinforced all the edges with strips of 3/4" pvc, chem welded into place. For the final top piece, I used a medium bodied pvc cement, as the water thin stuff can evaporate to fast!
I never got a final image of it, but it was exactly like you could imagine.
That job delivered this morning, for shooting tomorrow.

--------------------------------------------RACECAR------------------------------------------------

Jody finished the paint job on the driver's body, and despite the rumors (Rob), it isn't actually Jody in the car :) Although.............................................................

He drove off at the end of the day. Who knows if he'll win the race, but he'll be looking sweet, whatever he does!
We should get this back in around a week, and I might brand it out with all of our amazing sponsors, for display. Maybe Jody can drive it to the market for groceries!
They added a bunch of signage for our current NDA  t.v.show build, so that should keep us busy for another week. YAY!
It's the gift that keeps on giving :)!!
