Scaffolding under construction. I fabricated 42 layers of grids, with the help of notched ledger sticks to maintain the right spacing. The most difficult part was keeping it all square and placing the holes in the snow. The acrylic had to remain attached while I built the structure above it because the 1/8" stainless rod was likely to bend and taking the scaffolding and the connection holes out of alignment.
Initial scaffolding tests - stainless steel and laser cut clear acrylic.
The largest snow mass from the piece fully assembled. The laser cut pieces we glued together with the help of a template drawing and lots of squares to keep it all lined up.
