From set drawing you can see positions of set furniture and set flats.

From this we could take measurements on the fit up to actual positions on stage.

You can also notice where we intended to hang our tress and how much room we had to do this.

From strike plan you can see list of people involved and what equipment was required

It was also set out the way it was intended to run and what was done first

Table Construction

Table Construction

Our table construction happened as budget had run out to be able to buy what was required.

An email was sent out via Production Manager for TSM to build a reinforced table. My Deputy Jenny Howes and me got to work on some drawings for what we could produce. Four manufactured table legs we purchased and we would design and build the table top and enforcements.

We took on advice from Production Manager and workshop lecturers and were pleased with what we produced. You can see from Drawings and measurements given how it was all pieced together.

The Table top, 4 framing ledger pieces and 2 underside ledger pieces were all taken from the 1 piece of 18mm plywood.

• Mark out where ledger pieces are to go on Table top base • Fix ledgers with wood glue (1 piece at a time) • Hold ledgers in position with quick grip clamps • Once glue dries screw ledger piece to table • Attach ledger pieces together with glue and screws where required. • Hold legs into position, fix with glue and quick grips • Screw legs into foxed position • Fabricate corner pieces, fix to ledger pieces and to brace leg in position

The Paint used for the table was a bright orange undercoat with a dark brown on top. Whilst brown paint was still wet I used wood grain tools to give a more realistic effect. I then used a gloss coat to finish.
