W 4 - Plastic Mosaic begins


As per my schedule I have installed the remaining rafters and stapled the black plastic in place as the back wall of the cube. I think I may have to stuff the dust filters across the back - between the plastic and the window - as there's still quite a lot of light coming in. If that doesn't fit there's lots of black plastic and I'll stuff that in the space instead.

The rest of class I spent arranging and taping up my 1 bag of washed and cut recycled plastics to the two side walls. Here are the results so far:



It is quite clear already that it's impossible I'll have enough to cover all the surface area - I might be able to collect another 1 bag of plastics over the next two weeks - so I'll try to cover the surface from the top edge down to hip height as that'll be where most people will feel down to anyway. Plus - let's be honest - it'll make it more comfortable for me to install if I don't go below knee height.
