Set Build Workshop

The Set Build worksop was probably one of the most fun workshops we've had. Learning how to make walls from panels and how to create portions of rooms.


Aligning the panels
and screwing them together (as perfectly demonstrated by Amie)
First you need to lay down 2 panels flat next to each other and align them as mush as possible. Then screw 2 screws in each section of the panels to hold them together; lift them up with 3 people one on each side and one in the middle to stop the panels from collapsing inwards.

We then proceeded to attaching support on both sides of the panels to hold them up. We can either use already made support or make our own (making our own is more fun!)

Part of a set all build and ready to go
We then attach the other wall by adding screws through the support beams and voila! A set all ready to be decorated!

Finishing to take everything apart
To finish we just took everything apart the same way we put it up. Had a lot of fun that day and seeing how ambitious our set build is I can't wait to get cracking on it!
