Title: Eiffel Tower 1:1 Project
Post by: DenBrahe on January 16, 2011, 02:24:04 pm: I worked out a plan to build the Eiffel Tower (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiffel_Tower) according to this image (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/Dimensions_tour_Eiffel-NL.JPG).

I unfortunately can't give the plan, because my scanner can't scan A3-format paper (and because I can't handle drawing software).

Project Eiffel Tower:
Area: 125 x 125 x 324
Materials: Iron
Project leader: DenBrahe, DarkIncred (timezone: GMT+1)
Helpers: Daveydude, Raul7legend, Spartan_rain, SwaT123, ...
Server: EliteCraft
World: EifellTower
Example (not exactly the same as on my plans):
(https://www.opticraft.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fplone.scottsdalecc.edu%2Fbritishisles%2Fimages%2Feiffel-tower.jpg&hash=765dad6d861355a2a95c1740d99d6733)

We probably will need a world.
Also, if there are people who are willing to help, please answer.
I don't think we can handle a project like this with 2 people.

Lol no, the idea came up yesterday around midnight, when I had to much alcohol in my brains.
Incred and I were discussing what we could build (and it had to be massive).
So we thought about the Eiffel Tower, but to make all the details, it had to be an enormous tower.
The fact that you wanted to build the highest tower has nothing to do with it.
Although, you can help us and build the hightest tower anyway ;)

Post by: DenBrahe on January 16, 2011, 08:34:14 pm: I drawed the bottom part on a A4 paper so I could scan it in:

Everything is in the same material, but I used different colors for making it more clear.

Post by: DenBrahe on January 18, 2011, 05:01:45 pm: As soon as I have the world, we can start with Fase 1

I will start making 1 edge of the bottom.
Everyone who wants, can help making the other 3 edges.

Fases:
Fase 1: Raw Bottom (http://i.imgur.com/BVPVb.jpg)

Fase 2: Bottom (http://i.imgur.com/j7j32.jpg)

Fase 3: Raw Middle

Fase 4: Middle

Fase 5: Top
*no picture yet*

I will try to make the other pictures as soon as possible.
(in fact, we can use the plan in the first post, but it is not that clear)

No problem.
When you're ready, just copy the existing pillars
