On the last day of the first workshop all the team members had by now learnt a great deal about the timber joinery techniques being used and methods for preparing the tyres so that we were able to keep a good momentum and make another jump forward on the structure.
In addition a team set to making the most of the left-over car tyre sides to spread a sense of the structure and our project about Eden. The sides of the adjacent visitor centre, Alchemy, were clad and further afield on gates, fences and signs the tyres have been placed on the approach to the site to give visitors a suggestion of what is to come.
By the end of play three bays had been erected and the first two had been fully cross-braced. Some additional supports were also put into the earlier structure ahead of the engineer’s first visit to site on Monday.
