Now we can place the table in it's final resting
place :) No need to glue it. The weight alone will
prevent it from tipping over. But if you prefer a
permanent hook up, Use your Hot Glue Gun to do the
trick.

And here you can see the final table against the
Conference Room Diorama. I must say I just LOVE it
even without the chairs. :D

Time to make some chairs. We don't want our figures
to just stand up all day long now do we? :)
I found these Bobby Pin Hair pics at the dollar store.
I bet you are wondering what the heck are these for?
:P

For each chair, you will need 4 Picks. Measure from
the round knob and cut 2 at 1cm and 2 more at 1.25cm.
These will be your feet.

Use the Hot Glue Gun to dab a little on each of the
1.25cm Picks and press them together.
Make sure the round knobs are alligned in the same
direction. Are you starting to understand my idea
yet? :)

Now the 1cm picks need to be attached to each side
of step 170. Use the Hot Glue Gun to bond each pick
one at a time.
When you do this make sure that the round balls face
sideways. Ahhhh...Now you get it right? See how they
look like little wheels?

Now get a straw, I found these really cool BLACK
straws at IKEA. No need to paint them. I LOVE IT !!!
Cut a piece at 2cm.
|

Use the Hot Glue Gun again to bond the straw to the
wheel base. Keep your finger on the straw a few seconds
until the glue cools down so that the straw stays
straight and doesn't start to lean sideways.

OK, now we need to make the chair. The movie design
has some bends in it so you need a THIN carboard.
Not paper thin though, it won't keep the shape you
want to give it.
Mine was just regular Poster Board. You can find
this anywhere for under $1.50.

Using the measurements from Step 174 Cut out the
chair shape with your Xacto Blade. For the round hole,
I used a Paper Punch.
|

Now I measured 2.5cm from the top of the chair (the
pointy end is the top). This is your mark for the
chairs seat.
|

Take a marker (a pencil will work also) and place
it aligned with the pencil mark.
|

Now gently BEND the cardboard inwards like if you
were going to wrap it around the pen. Don't be afraid
to go too far, you want the cardboard to remember
the shape. So more is better.
DON'T bend it too FAST though, this could cause ugly
creases in the cardboard.
|
|
 |
 |

Now with an even fatter wider marker, Bend the Chair's
Top half over in the opposite direction of the first
bend. We want to create an "S" shape.
|

This is what the chair should look like now. the
Red Circles represent where the Pens were placed to
help the bends.
