First round of sun shade prototypes






Thermo/Die formed plastic.  Turned out very clean (except for the oops on laser cutting too many holes)  Plastic will need to be thicker and opaque on the next version.



 

double sided CNC foam.  I really liked this one because of its strong sculpted qualities and its potential to be parametrically controlled in grasshopper.







 

Making the die from nylon.  Turns out nylon mills really well- can't wait to make the next one.
















 

Die forming copper- with limited success. 

I made the die too aggressive- the next round will be a little more subtle.
