Snow Cone Assemblage Continues

As stated earlier, that the installation team were able to put the Snow Cone up within the day and in such freezing cold temperatures is an incredible feat. Taking a look at the apparel, it is evident that the team either decided to wear multiple winter wardrobes worth of clothing, or that blankets are making a comeback... it was that cold.

Note how the petals have different aperture conditions based upon the orientation to the winds... perhaps that was one of the reasons why the team got the Snow Cone up so quickly.

Going to and Working On Site

The intrepid [R]ed[U]x Lab team managed to get all the full scale mock-up disassembled and brought on to the site at the Beeches. Once on site, the team had to prep the area and start assembling... in near record-setting temperatures. The team braved the freezing temperatures by the water's edge with no refuge from the unforgiving winds. To say that this team was focused and devoted to the task is an understatement. How the team managed to not only assemble the precise elements but also keep smiles (or was that because their faces were frozen?) is an incredible feat.

Prepping the Colour Panels for the Snow Cone

Adding a little bit of colour and visual warmth to the design, the acrylic panels in the Snow Cone will ideally attract attention and contrast against the muted grey and white of the structure and surroundings. The team can be seen putting the finishing touches on the laser cut panels that also had to be numbered in order to ensure proper coordination of assembly.
