Working on a Shack with a Pyramid Roof

I am using bristol board for the sub-walls. The building will measure a scale 12 foot square. Randum width boards will added to the subwalls. The walls will be nine foot tall.

There will be two doors and six windows: front and back sides get a door and a window; the sides will host two windows per side. Four triangles will be cut from the bottom sheet. These triangles will measure thirteen foot across the bottom and will be six foot tall.

Wall sections and material for roof sections.

Blinding Ignorance

"Blinding ignorance does mislead us. 'O' wretched mortals, open your eyes!."

Leonardo da Vinci ¹

AI Overview

¹This quote is contributed to Leonardo da Vinci and is often found in his notebooks, reflecting his frustrations with human ignorance and inaction. It is a call to use observation, science, and intellect to overcome biases and superficial understanding.

Key Contextual Points:

Source: The phrase appears in Leonardo da Vinci's notebooks, specifically referencing the tendency for human ignorance to lead to poor decisions, often cited in discussions of the artist's scientific and philosophical thought.

Interpretation: It is a plea for critical thinking and observation, encouraging people to look beyond surface-level reality to see the true nature of things.

Theatricality: The phrase "O! Wretched mortals" is noted as a passionate, almost despairing cry from Leonardo regarding the prevalence of human folly.

Broader Thought: It connects to his broader philosophies that experience and study (theory) are essential, rather than relying on unthinking practice, as seen in his collected thoughts on Goodreads.

¹ The quote emphasizes the importance of gaining knowledge through observation and intellectual effort rather than staying in the dark.

Scratchbuilding Industrial Greebles

Greeblies can be created from any type of material. In this clip the author used bits of styrofoam to create several industrial greeblies.

New Greeblies for Future Projects

I prefer to manufacture my own greeblies when I can, but special shapes can become hard and time consuming to create. The prices at CreepyHero Studios are economical and their offerings are full of detail, crisp and clean.

Thingamajig

This thingamajig was created to fill a pole building that is being built to go along side of the Wills Sheds. The open shed will need to be filled with materials, projects that have been completed and those in process. It might take a few objects and materials to fill this shed so I have taken it upon my self to build what I can. This object was primarily built from foam-core and with paper strips and few other materials was built to be set in a corner.
