The bracelet didn't make it to the hands of consumers for unknown reasons and was landfill bound, but was rescued by several material reuse organizations throughout New York State. The benches will utilize roughly 1000 bracelets as spacers between the Corian scrap to reduce the weight of the benches and permit water to flow through.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhBtvvRRIrBH2osEjP-8LoF6ztVURZK1xQD0EG2BAnrJOF01wIp3EAV9rhdLRz0W369Jg46UWJgEiF4Kpx-1iZdueAa8kZyoNeGVBx_zrrR3hcAlbSCbbOPc0sISCiC-9N4Ar3UNUid-fc/s1600-h/IMG_3047.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhBtvvRRIrBH2osEjP-8LoF6ztVURZK1xQD0EG2BAnrJOF01wIp3EAV9rhdLRz0W369Jg46UWJgEiF4Kpx-1iZdueAa8kZyoNeGVBx_zrrR3hcAlbSCbbOPc0sISCiC-9N4Ar3UNUid-fc/s400/IMG_3047.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038611875711122114" /></a><br /><br />The seat uses flashing produced from the 810 model sink, modified with 2-2" holes to accept a galvanized pipe for structural support.

Kyle Doda was interested in pushing the limits of Corian and thermoforming. He chose the hammock as a method to test the structural capabilities of Corian, and put on a performance in the creation of the hammock. Kyle was harnessed into a winch with 4 layers of glass casting leathers for protection from the 300 degree Corian. The material was heated in a glass annealer and suspended above the ground with cables. Kyle was lowered into the hammock, forming the Corian to his body. The final piece is surprisingly comfortable and will be hung in the lobby of Harder Hall for others to enjoy. Information will be posted alongside the hammock on the thermoforming process.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNTvQ6tRmYa7P07xSy0ydSZosYeL8wfs7tug8J_7ET_s2oLwk_tsU6kYmdRVAg9nT-DkfRdgow1FMb2wYwOeOILn8h3CNhWY5Wkqf9q43zecnGDkMQleUlmXe6tQF3NQ4-DKDP-7gFDDM3/s1600-h/IMG_2443.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNTvQ6tRmYa7P07xSy0ydSZosYeL8wfs7tug8J_7ET_s2oLwk_tsU6kYmdRVAg9nT-DkfRdgow1FMb2wYwOeOILn8h3CNhWY5Wkqf9q43zecnGDkMQleUlmXe6tQF3NQ4-DKDP-7gFDDM3/s400/IMG_2443.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5028060624430345666" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkVH8q2OO0ya2R0zVjM6e2Qxbda6npLr8zRXOK5ydy1hzAvX-Gf04dB9LA-wDWoD_jwK2Ders1-wDFu4uTocNZQBaOEVgPtoXFWMieQgcBeEW_L-Tm5pqD-K8sYjFYDAp3a298vNEcTTm1/s1600-h/IMG_2455.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkVH8q2OO0ya2R0zVjM6e2Qxbda6npLr8zRXOK5ydy1hzAvX-Gf04dB9LA-wDWoD_jwK2Ders1-wDFu4uTocNZQBaOEVgPtoXFWMieQgcBeEW_L-Tm5pqD-K8sYjFYDAp3a298vNEcTTm1/s400/IMG_2455.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5028061260085505490" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrUq-awuDEHG71dliU4vTJ0l2rM4lLZJWh7XNZuDF67J9LBT5k-mzXxOHPKPFlV_wscsw9sT6Ah1lAYmYdkN6Oa780TnZvenmbydscualGEji3m01tb9z11lvmhptRpvqxPigyc-GgyctH/s1600-h/IMG_2458.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrUq-awuDEHG71dliU4vTJ0l2rM4lLZJWh7XNZuDF67J9LBT5k-mzXxOHPKPFlV_wscsw9sT6Ah1lAYmYdkN6Oa780TnZvenmbydscualGEji3m01tb9z11lvmhptRpvqxPigyc-GgyctH/s400/IMG_2458.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5028062140553801186" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinGz8tCggxc9v2Uuz7_6JJlP9JWvz-9n1sGyEABbOKP_53-kDnFifRMbNfdLULOUwMySo7HwupT1XoJAR_OreMGfDGOVIXFzKVstbhtVLk-wvtqkMY5InSJ-s7r8VKMc-v9l6glvzDIla3/s1600-h/IMG_2468.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinGz8tCggxc9v2Uuz7_6JJlP9JWvz-9n1sGyEABbOKP_53-kDnFifRMbNfdLULOUwMySo7HwupT1XoJAR_OreMGfDGOVIXFzKVstbhtVLk-wvtqkMY5InSJ-s7r8VKMc-v9l6glvzDIla3/s400/IMG_2468.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5028062905057979890" /></a><br /><br />Video Documentation of the event<br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/z3fQOBxaHt4"> </param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/z3fQOBxaHt4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"> </embed> </object>Authorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15576658448824053928noreply@blogger.com0
