Saturday, 17 January 2009. Anemometer and Weather Vane. Here are two of the wind measuring instruments, Anemometer and Weather Vane, that will be attached to the top of the Weather Station. The Anemometer measures wind speed and the Weather Vane signals wind direction. These two pieces now have to go off to be galvanised and painted white. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Flintham Weather Garden: Play Surface
http://flinthamweathergarden.blogspot.com/2009/05/play-surface.html
Monday, 4 May 2009. The re-cycled rubber surface (made in The Netherlands from old truck tyres) has arrived. We've now cut it to shape and when installed it will sit around the base of the Weather Station on the side where the steps are. This cushioned surface feels great underfoot and will offer a degree of protection for anyone who falls/jumps off the steps! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Links to project partners.

Wednesday, 17 December 2008. Here is a prototype for a section of the collecting cabinets that are to form part of the screens that surround the Weather Garden.

In the photograph are a few objects that I have collected over the years, they usually live in the cabinet on my studio wall. Wednesday, 3 December 2008. 1/10 scale kinetic maquette for the Weather Station made from paper.
