Plywood (pine)

The prompt for this project was to create 5 identical objects, entirely with our woodworking skills. This heightened the importance of precise measurement, the use of stop-blocks and jigs, and planning out a repeatable process.

This piece is part of a series around the theme “symmetry is overrated”, and plays with the use of intentional and surprising asymmetry.
