Entered into: The Community Prize
Overviewteamupdatesworkspacecalendarfiles 

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

This shelter is designed to be easy to assemble and affordable. It is slotted plywood construction with a tarped roof. The only fasteners are 3/8" bolts with wing nuts, so no tools are necessary, which makes assembly very safe. The parts were cut out on our Shopbot(cnc tool)so the part files can be shared with the world and be duplicated for anyone, wherever they are needed. The shelter design makes it easily elongated to increase the size as needed.
