SFMOMA Fabrication Shop: Roubo-Workbench

​I worked on several projects for the SFMOMA fabrication shop, most notably interpreting complicated instructions for this “roubo-workbench” into a palatable, exacting fabrication guide. The fabricators wanted to take on the challenge - most of them for the first time - of working in millimeters, but the instructions needed first to be checked for accuracy and offered up as an interactive model - a fun and rewarding secondary project.
