Shum Shiow Huey: Pre-Domes Day, Domes Day, Post-Domes Day

YOUSE THE BEST

Proposed Dome's Plan View

This is the mini dome we made before we make the real dome.

Pre Dome's Day

First day prefabrication we decided to do at outside "bengkel kayu". This is because there is a big space which enable us to cut dried reeds and tie them up.

That day was weekend, workshop was closed, so nobody was around there except those hardworking students like us. Haha... Just kidding.. The whole day we used to measure the length of dried reeds and tie them up. We can only tied half way at around 7pm or 8pm, all of us were very hungry and really can't continue... So we decided to go out to search food~~ Oops! We can't left all our material at outside right? So we moved all materials to our studio and cleaned up the rubbish and dust around there before go to eat.

After came back from eating, it's around half past nine already. We continue to tie the dried reeds in the studio.Studio can switch on the air conditioner so we wouldn't as hot as evening just now. So! Next time we decide to do all prefabrication in studio next time!! We wouldn't be burned by the strong UV light.

The next day, we tried to set up the dome. It really need all commitment from all members because it is very difficult to set alone...

Finally!!! We succeed... The dome we made is carry able by 3 people and can accommodate 5 people. But we cant bring the dome out from the studio just because of its size...

So we decided to divide the dome into many parts. We set it up on Dome's Day.

Dome's Day

Dome's Day was dropped on 10 Sept 2008. In the early morning we headed to lecturer hall to listen to the briefing.

After that, we go for registration before heading to our site.
