Last time, our intrepid crew had arrived at the back field, and had just started to build<\/a>!<\/p>\n

The first part of the maze that our crew built was the central triangle:<\/p>\n

To help you place things, here’s the overhead view again:<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>
The Overhead view of the maze. This design was stable throughout the process. The only modification we made was to remove post 24 and its attached mirror.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"I<\/a>
I have no idea where anyone is in this picture.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Mirrors<\/a>
Mirrors are fun (and Riskee Ball agrees).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Can<\/a>
Can you tell that this is a two-way mirror? I almost can’t.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The following is probably the most useful (and one of the simplest) tools I’ve ever used. Patrick started using it when we were attaching mirrors to post hinges, and it allowed for much, much easier alignment. We ended up purchasing like five of them for the playa build. It is probably correct to say that this simple tool halved the amount of time required for the build. At Canadian Tire (where I purchased them), they’re called ‘Lineup Punches’<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"This<\/a>
This is the device that saved us. Patrick used one of these to align hinges with mirrors, and we never looked back. It would be correct to say that this simple tool halved the time of the build.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Stay tuned for next time, when we assemble the rest of the mirrors! Hooray!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
