Scaling up
Refinement and Scaled up version of prototype 5 to outline key problems and give a better perspective
This prototype brings into effect the shear amount of structure I will need to put into my design for it to hold up effectively. The side bits are very thin and not strong.
You can see how weak the top of the slider is. Next time I will have to figure out where that will stop in order to make it really strong to be able to hold up a person. The amount of stress and force put onto that slider will force it to come off as shown in the next photo.
Reinforcing on a horizontal was not such a good idea as it is very weak. The way to overcome this issue is to look back at my previous joinery such as the crossing one and figure out that it needs to be on a vertical line in order for it to be really strong and have structural integrity for not only me.
The sliders with one are not strong, but as seen with various more holes, there is opportunity for more sliders to be put in which means greater strengthening for the structure.
