issues

right so i finished the chair all was well in the world.. it supported weight, looked sweet and was all in all wicked seeing the locking system at the bottom was thrown together last min. i went off to sort out branding have something to eat and do some sporting design and work on some photoshoots i did during the week. when i came back to spray my stencil onto the chair though i noticed that there were stress points on the slotting system at the bottom. this is from a combination of things.

1 the hand cutting method i used meant that there was a slight perferation in the corners, (laser cutting will fix this issue)

2 slot was too close to the end therefore if i move it closer in to the fold there will be more material in between and all will be well in the world

combining these two solutions will result in a much better outcome

IF ONLY THERE WAS MORE XANITA AT MY DISPOSAL....

in the mean time i have added two smaller slots at the bottom to try take force off the first slotting system
