The buildingweek(s) began bright and early on monday 8 a.m. when the rest of the world had yet to arise. A peacefull Bouwkunde would soon be disturbed by the – seamingly endless – sound of our drillmachines, lengths shoutouts and some curses at the grasshoppermodels.
But by the end of the day.. we had sort of successfully extracted the right drawings, built the side panelling and support system, one testblock PURed to test the PURmachine and we set up the first (203) block-to-be-PURed-tuesday.

Final logo and name of Fil.
Sebastian has made this nice looking logo! For everyone a short description of the origin of the name and logo:
The name arose from the objects form, which looks a bit like an elephant head. Fil means Elephant in Turkish. But we pronounce it not as Fiel, as it should be pronounced in Turkish, but more as a name like Phill. SoFil.
The logo is sent to Mark today, hopefully they are able to make a print out of it, so it can be put on the object still.
Here is also the PDF, which you can open in Illustrator: Fil_Logo
After one week of working hard, the actual product got finished.
