I'm still looking to build a solid team to come to my Richmond, CA shop.

Yes, there's a lot of busy work, but that is so important! 


And no matter the task, each volunteer is helping to build giant cat sculptures as a team member (my Zoomies!).


Upcoming Tasks:

* Wash metal rings (welded together to construct sculpture)

* Repair Cat Form #1

* Build a rolling stand with pipes/tubing to store and organize the rings

* Remove glue and drywall from interior of the sculptures

* Build second rolling platform

* Assemble Cat Form #2

* Clear side yard

* Build rain/sun shelter in side yard

* Roll cats into side yard

* Help remove cat sculptures from form

* Help put sculptures back together!

* Grind welds and clean cat sculptures

* Paint sculptures with Rust-Oleum

* Install lighting, sound, effects, etc.


Special Help - Folks with this knowledge and these skill sets - I need mew!!

I have ideas of what I want to do but need folks with some experience to help me get there.

* Welding - experienced, please.

* Sculpture Modularity - who can we break the sculptures down for transport?

* Structural Engineering - safety!

* Materials Selection - something better out there?

* Lighting - LED/Interactive/Sound Reactive

* Electronics - Capacitive Touch/Motion Sensing/Power

* Sound - Vibration/Sensory/Audio/Speakers

* Fabricators
