WallExperimentWork session report: Here's a sample we built of something that could serve as a Mended Drum wall. It's made of lightweight sheets of extruded polystyrene insulation that come in 2' x 8' pieces that can be easily cut and taped together. We can cover them with the stone wall paper that will be coming next week. It's also cheap (about $6/sheet) and lightweight.

FirstNightSignWork session report: Here's a sample First Night sign. (First Night logo by Alice Lewis.)

SignTemplateWork session report: Deb experimented with attaching signs to self-stick foam core. Here's a sample of our sign template. (Note: Those lines are really solid; the apparent uneveness is just an artifact caused by the photo reduction...)

Work session report: Sharon just arrived, proudly displaying her copy of PR 7, which arrived in her mailbox today.

Work session report: Here's a more stable way of combining 3 pieces of grid wall so it will be more stable than a simple triangle. (I believe this was suggested by Mike Nelson.)
