First side's out!

0

The side panel of the first container are finally out. Mat's been cutting the steel and carefully planning how to release the side panel safely. He designed a special rope system to maneuver the heavy panels...but things don't always go according to plan. Thankfully I was hanging on to the camera while it all happened and we had a big laugh about it.

We will also add some design sketches later so that you can follow the process a little better. Most of the design has been brewing in Mat's head for the last 15 years but there are heaps of drawings floating around which we'll scan in soon. Enjoy the video!

Laters,
