The first model that I built using thick box board. Realising the scale of the model, it probably would've been better to use thin box board. The model was quite easy to build, the only trouble I had was cutting the out the part where the table locks onto the actual chair, on the full scale model this would have been easier as its not so fiddly and hard to cut. Besides that the chair seems to sit well. One modification that I would make if I took this design to the next stage would be to fix the support beam under the chair, because it is only one piece running along the centre of the chair if the user wasn't to sit perfectly in the middle it may tip to one side or the other.
i like how that arm rest pops out rather than being a separate piece. can't how the chair body connects to the frame underneath it, but i guess we'll see in class.
