Ess 2. The 'HourGlass' cardboard step! thingy..




Dimesions:
Height - 200mm
Seat - 130 x 130mm
Thickness - 2mm

Tested strenght - 100kg aprox.
Starting with rather awful sketches, i eventually after multiple ideas and attempts with various paper weights, setteled with a final design. i only wanted to use one sheet of card and instead make a step/stool rather than a platform. eventually decided a thicker more rigid material was needed to minimise the number of folds, slotting and cutting so not to over engineer the piece.
