Their many slotted joins reduce fold tension in the structure and allow for fluid, easy movement—as well as a logical and amusing approach to assembly. In this workshop you will use a kit of pre-cut pieces to assemble and study a variety of applied sliceform structures, with the ultimate goal of designing your own sliceform. As a final step, you will bind the structures into a simple case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll skill levels are encouraged!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c!-- notionvc: 1e08ef1d-7f7c-41b7-aec4-9bdb4c7256d2 --\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRequired Tools:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBone folder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003exacto knife\/blades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003emicrospatula\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTweezers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003esteel ruler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eself-healing mat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePVA or other strong white craft glue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e415 or other double-stick tape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout Shawn Sheehy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.shawnsheehy.com\/\"\u003eShawn Sheehy\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ehas been teaching book arts courses and workshops since 2001.
