There once was a thread
were people were rhyming
....but that wasn't what the thread was about, so they stopped it.
lol
wait.... 4th of september? Oh, yeah, that's like... soon. I'll be done building the thing tomorrow, then It'll get some paint.
And I really have a problem: so far, the factory doesn't really look like a cookie factory.... how can I make it look like one? Put plenty of boxes full of cookies in front of it?? Help!

YES!!! that would be cool... and youo could make one of these boxes spill out some cookies too... just do them with small holepunched discs of cardboard or PC... and then add sprinkled sand on them for that extra tasty structure^^

That's awesome, Vit! Thank you!
This is still WiP, but it's coming together:
I need to get as much of this done tomorrow as possible - I've pulled some killer shifts at the hospital, and I don't know how much time I'll have over the next few weeks. Worked 70 hours last week, and that was the lightest of the next 3 D:
Would be absolutely gutted to get this far and not finish.
On a side note, has anyone had any luck painting cellophane yet? That's one of my next steps. And I'd love to hear what you think of the generator set-up so far!

The generator is great. cellophane will tend to bead up paint. tiniting it with ink like substances is possible but a pain. You might have to pick up some "plastic primer" from Valspar, or Krylon to paint it.

The cellophane is a pain in the butt, but I find that with something like latex paint (for walls) you can build up a nice primer layer. The problem is keeping it stick, as every touch will cause the paint to just crack and come off.
Darn Vik really gave us a tough one...

Coat it in superglue or pva or something? Or you could skim a thin layer of gs or liquid gs or milliput or something over the top.

Nice job Vit 
A coat or two of pva sorts the cellophane out just fine. Don't forget to add a drop of washing-up liquid to break the surface tension.

Amazing work here. Really impressed by the participation as well. Tough judging for sure, and some amazing new pieces on the tabletop for all who entered!
That said, I have to drop from this one and will likely skip the next couple. I have some IRL stuff to manage and there's no way I'd offer a proper entry at this point.
I'll still be on Dakka as much as possible and update my other stuff as I can. Dave's surprise package arrived today, it's amazing. Will post pics later.

Thanks a lot for the kind words, guys!
@Dave - it's actually an expired vial of insulin and some plasticard tubing. Making the most of trash! 
Cheers for the tips with the cellophane too - PVA seemed to work out fairly well for me!
@Skalk - That sucks, man, hope you can sort out whatever's going on as soon as possible - it's a damn shame that real life takes precedence sometimes.
I'm nearly done, but I'm working 13 and a half hour shifts this weekend, so here's hoping I can make the final few touches I need to. Good luck to all on the finish! Automatically Appended Next Post: Also! The deadline is September 4th - that's 23.59 GMT on September 4th, right?
