I spent all last weekend with a couple of others attempting to build a scale model of a portion of Tianjin city. Of all the cities in the world, the Chinese city of Tianjin was assigned to us for studying in context of its urban planning. We tried to be tricky and have the buildings laser cut from acrylic using a CAD drawing fed through the laser cutter's software only to fail dismally with the machine refusing to oblige us! So, back to good old foam and a couple of hot wire cutters. After excruciatingly cutting out the teeny tiny blocks, here's a few work in progress pics of our foam city coming together in the workshop. I have to admit I would be happy to never have to repeat this exercise again.
