Chair and House

Ok, I finished everything! The chair that I worked on with a team is finished and my design project is finished! I wish I had more photos of my chair because I found out I miss some stages, but in the mean time this has happened:

After putting layers of fiberglass on the mold we let it dry and we cut the fiberglass to take the mold out. Then we worked on bending some wood to make the seat and the supports of the seat.

To get the surface of the fiberglass smooth we put filling material to fill in the gaps and then we sanded.

We lacquered the seat.

We painted the chair.


This is the A0 poster i needed to make for my design project. It had to be self-explanatory (is this a word? :) ) so if you have any questions just ask :P.


So that's all for now!
See you!

Gerês

Another trip was to Gerês. This is a nature park in the north of Portugal and also a bit in Spain. we went by car and on the first day we ended in Nazare.

The car on the camping in Nazare

On the way to Gerês we also stopped to see Bom Jesus.

Almost at Gerês so time to stop and think about our addictions: Bica, Galao, Meia leite, Peanuts and cookies!!!

And that with this view!

Our tents on the camping of Gerês.

One of the waterfalls where we swam.

Pawel at a miradouro overseeing Gerês.

Aleks feeling the water at another waterfall.

Swimming in the big lake.

Visiting a small town with some cool grain storages.

And on our way back we visited Coimbra.

And that was the trip to Gerês!

Madeira

Okay, a long long long long long tima ago (about a month or two) two friends and me took a plane to a Portugese island Madeira (wood in portugese). This is a small report of it :).


The wing of our Awesome airplane!

But Oh No!!!! The wheater above Madeira is to bad, so we need to fly back to Lisboa! Oh no!!!! our vacation is ruined!!

(Rabi, Aleksander, Frank)
But luckily for us Easyjet decided to give a four star (!!!!) hotel with complementary lunch and diner! Awesome ! :)

Okay so the four star hotel was nice and all but we wanted to go to this beautifull island so we tried to go to Madeira the following day.

Aleks, me and Bob! (ps: Bob is the car :) )

The famous fruit market of Madeira, where you can eat bananas that taste like mango, mangos that taste like apple and oranges that taste anything you want! I felt like Harry Potter!

On our trip to the highest point of the Madeira we needed to try to drink at least some water of one of the waterfalls! With succes! :)

View on our way to the top!

On the desert side of the island we found some really big beautiful rocks. For scale: it's me there on the right!

A famous Lavada (water path) of Madeira was called the 25 Fontes (25 waterfalls) and this is the end, a really long waterfall surrounded by a lot of small ones... To difficult to put on camera :(.

Last sunset blocked by the clouds, still nice to see.

All a bit sad to leave.

Well that was our trip to Madeira!
