Aerial Safety Net (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 6.4 x 4.2 m safety net on six steel uprights with raking stays, the mesh modelled as stiff cords sagging half a metre in the middle. Static: a net that gives under a body needs a joint per knot.
Tightrope and Platforms (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 8.4 m high wire between two 3.6 m platforms, each on four legs with a rung ladder, blue guard boards and a raking stay. The wire is stiff geometry and static, because a wire that dips under a walker is not one rigid body.
AnimatedTrapeze Rig (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 5.4 m free standing trapeze frame: four raking steel legs on ground plates, braced twice a side, with a red top beam at 5.6 m. The fly bar hangs on two stiff lines from the beam and is one node on the beam's own axis.
Circus Poster Board, Gold Frame (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
The same blank bill board in a gold frame on a blue face, for a second poster style along a run of boards. The geometry is unchanged.
AnimatedShowground Fence Gate (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
The same fence bay with its infill hung as a gate leaf on the left post, so a run of fence has a way through it. The leaf is one node on the hinge stile and swings clear of the run.
Showground Fence Panel (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 2.5 m fence bay: white pales on two red rails between capped timber posts, 1.15 m high. Run ports at both ends carry a fence right round a pitch.
Circus Poster Board (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 1.6 x 2.3 m double sided bill board on two raking timber legs, with a plain framed face left blank for a project to letter itself. Nothing on it is readable, so it carries no wording of its own.
Ringside Box (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 2.8 x 1.9 m raised ringside box: a boarded deck with a red carpet, gilt corner posts and rails on three sides, and four bentwood chairs facing the ring. The ring side is left open.
AnimatedCircus Ticket Booth (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 1.9 x 1.7 x 3.1 m timber pay box with a red serving front, a counter shelf, a bulb lit scalloped skirt roof and a blank fascia board. The hatch over the counter is one node on its head rail.
Circus Entrance Arch (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 5.2 m wide bulb lit entrance arch on two blue piers: a red and white banded head with eleven lamps along it and a blank 2.6 x 0.95 m sign panel under it, ready for a title in a game's own type.
Tiered Bench Seating Bank (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 5 m bank of five raked bench tiers on timber frames, painted red and blue with a foot board on each step and a steel back rail. Four banks face a ring on each side.
Sawdust Ring Floor (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
The floor inside the kerb: a 8 m disc of raked sawdust 50 mm deep with four scuffed patches worn into it. Drop it inside a closed ring of kerb segments.
Circus Ring Kerb Segment (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
One eighth of the ring kerb: a 8 m diameter red kerb 300 mm high with a white capping, curved through 45 degrees. Eight of them attach end to end and close the circle.
Tent Stake (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 700 mm steel tent stake driven at a rake, with a burred head and the churned ground round it. Two dozen of them hold a big top down, and the same stake anchors rigging, fencing and a safety net.
Tent Guy Line and Tensioner (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A guy line as stiff geometry: one straight 4 m rope from the wall head down to a raked steel stake, with a two block timber tensioner on it. Static by design, because a rope that hangs and stretches is not reachable with a rigid node transform.
Big Top King Pole (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 4.6 m quarter pole: a timber mast on a spreader plate with a cross head, a rigging ring for the roof lines and a gold cap. Four of them carry the cone between the centre pole and the sidewall, standing where the roof still has the height for them.
Big Top Scalloped Valance (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 4 m run of scalloped valance, five gold tongues under a red band with a white bob on each point. It hangs at the eave over a canvas bay, and fourteen runs skirt the whole tent.
Big Top Centre Pole (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
The 8.9 m king mast that carries the crown of the tent: a tapered timber pole on a steel spreader plate, two rigging rings and a gold ball with a pair of pennants over it. It stands in the middle of the ring.
Showground Ground Tile (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 4 m square of trodden showground, 6 mm thick, with four low humps rolled into it. Edge ports on all four sides tile a whole field without a seam.
Big Top Canvas Bay (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
A 4 x 3.4 m red and white sidewall bay with a laced batten on each edge and timber hem and head rails. Fourteen of them close a 17.5 m ring, edge ports landing on the polygon's own vertices.
Big Top Entrance Bay (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
The same sidewall bay with a 2 m doorway cut through it under a rolled canvas head on two timber jambs, for the one bay of the ring the crowd walks in through. Ports and height are unchanged, so it drops into any position in the ring.
Big Top Striped Roof Cone (Travelling Circus and Big Top)
The tent's roof: fourteen red and white gores rising 4.2 m to a gold crown ring, 18.6 m across the eaves so it oversails the sidewall. Set it on the wall head, over the centre pole; the gold crown ring caps the point where the fourteen gores meet.
Lotus pond pavilion (Imperial China Palace and Garden)
One corner of the pond on its own at working scale: four water modules inside their coping runs, the open pavilion on its stone piles with the tea table, the cushions and the zither on the deck, the arched stone bridge crossing to it, lotus clusters and floating lanterns on...
Walled palace courtyard and lotus garden (Imperial China Palace and Garden)
A complete walled palace court laid from 4 m paving on a 32 m square plot. The double eaved ceremonial hall stands on its stone terrace at the head of the court with a bronze cauldron on each side of the steps, the gate tower closes the south wall on the axis with a pair of...
