The structure for the bowl is almost completed without hand cutting any of the planned components… for the rest of us used to build ramps making adjustments with the saw, working at a millimetric level of detail sounds incredible!

The bowl takes shape

view from the platform

This week the work on the bowl site slowed down a bit due to some building components not easy to produce… and the Polish worker (a.k.a. Marcin Solecki) being injured at the Parco Lambro skatepark. Nothing too serious and he’ll be back on board soon. On the other hand Giuliano Berarducci joined us to document the site with pictures beside working on a couple of parallel projects that sound pretty interesting.

Giuliano is the founder of the roman skateshop First Love, creator of the fanzine OrangeValleyEnt and he takes quality skatebording shots since 2001. He is one of the few Italian photographers that sport pictures published on Skateboarder, Thrasher and The Skateboard Mag. When he is not stuck in Milano he works for Affiliate in Chicago.

“It’s 8200… is it ok?”

Viti e bulloni

Today we received nuts, bolts, screws etc. from Fixing Systems for the assembly of the bastard bowl that we’ll start to build during the next week… it’s a 200 Kg. box with 8200 pieces inside!

These are the parts for the structure only, the layers are excluded… what a useless wooden toy!

Components of the bastard bowl

by jep 14 June 2008

Today we ordered the last structural components of the bastard bowl that we are building inside the new COMVERT HQ in Milano projected by studiometrico.

bastard bowl

Laid on a mt. 15×12 area, the bowl is mt. 1.85 high with two hips, one lowered to 1.50 (the one on the left in the image above), an extension 2.50 high and a corner with elevator 2.10 high (low right). With a lazy radius of mt. 2.50 the bowl is completely made using CAD/CAM technologies applied with knowledge by engineer Marco Clozza of Atelier LC.

The bowl is reserved for recreational use and fun of bastard employees, team and friends.
