Legs

También agregué los ankles a las piernas, hechas con capas de MDF de 3mm. A su vez tuve que reducir el espesor de la punta de las piernas para que pueda caber en los pies (25mm según los blueprints)

Legs, first steps.

I made my first steps as a carpenter, so results might not cover the expectation of the perfectionists ;-) I used the template made of styrene to draw the outlines on the plywood and then cut it with a jigsaw (thanks Leandro for this tool!!). As I don't have a garage I set up my work space in the second room :-)






I cut 2 layers of 20mm for each leg to obtain 40mm of thickness. To get 44,45mm according to blueprints I will put styrene skins of 2mm. For the ankle I will glue a MDF layer of 10mm on each side to match blueprint's specifications.

Legs

Today I started to build the legs. I did a template out of left over styrene. Tomorrow I will start to figure out how to match the thickness of blueprints for plywoods, because I have them in 20mm.

Plywood for legs!

Yesterday I received from Valeria & Diego (thanks!) a few cuts of Plywood remaining of the construction of their house. They are 20mm thick; later I will see how to match Blueprint's specifications.
