Beacon is a success

Instead of a prototype this year I decided to use the  same technology but create a different sculpture.  this gave us a test of concept that was more manageable in size and scope.
Kris showing the lightweight efficiency of the new plywood uzi.

Painting the parts.


Test panels finished and painted.  We just went freestyle designing in all directions. Images using native american and mayan styles seem the most appropriate for Vast.
Built as lightweight as possible. using the tractor made the lifting simple and safe.

The beacon.

Ahh....

Close up of the bent panels and the plastic water bottle lanterns inside.  Not much of a breeze but the lanterns could move gently if there was wind.

The lanterns during the day.
Preburn.

The burning was  very interesting.  it started out slow and  built slowly till we had a 30ft flame.  Each stage with its own character.  the falling debris and popping of the bamboo kept things interesting.
