Status

- 2022-06-25: Materials bought, design settled, making has started
Howto: Prepare
- The letters are lasercut from 9mm OSB. One full sheet becomes one letter (122 x 244 cm).
- They are painted with acrylic paint.
- Holes are present (lasered at the same time as the letters themselves) to install the LEDs through-hole.
- The LED part of the process is up to SA007.
Howto: Buildup
- The letters are stored in Wijchen,
- To install them, five volunteers would be good to have.
- It will take an hour or three.
- The letters need to be reinforced with some wooden slats (panlatten). There are two possible methods of installing them:
- Put up poles, screw letters to poles. Tie down with washing line and tent pegs.
- Put down pallets, attach letters to pallets, tie down with washing line and tent pegs.
Howto: Teardown
- The letters will be thrown out (the LEDs will be dismantled for reuse).
- Two or three volunteers would be nice.
- It should be doable in an hour.
