Caught up!

We got a little crammed for time on this build, and then had 3 days on set, which we weren't really expecting, so I ran out of time for posting!

Next up was the bridge that spans the opening where the kid actors stand. This was from 1/2" pvc. I used a 1/4" Ballnose cutter to cut the slots for the 1/4" acrylic rod, that will become the multiple upright supports. I went with the ballnose cutter, so the rods would fit tight and clean, as opposed to a square bottom slot from an endmill.

They fit super duper! Because this is a set, anything that doesn't face the camera, doesn't get any attention. So as this is the back side of the bridge, it will just get painted like this.

The final bits were some fencing along the "Wharf", and some ladders down to the "water"
We even made little bollard cleats for boats, but I didn't get any pictures :(

These were the only pictures on set I could get of it. Cause the second the crew arrived, the toys were placed on it, then no pictures allowed!
This was fairly big. At a total of 16 feet wide, by 9 feet deep. Just the way I like it :)
