David Stovell Design www.stovelldesign.co.uk David Stovell 2008 © How to make a Sunday Papers Stool....... A range of experimental products made from tight rolled newspaper. It explores their compressed life cycle and was inspired by the bundles of newspapers left outside shops on a Saturday night, (when they are delivered for sale on Sunday) which have a cultural and economic value, and that the same product has a different set of values by Monday morning (when they are ready to be returned to the wholesaler), in that the news is old news and their value is for pulp. I wondered that if by simply repackaging, the material life cycle could be extended and a new product produced. At the end of the seats life it can still be pulped. I have made this PDF of how to make a Sunday papers Stool available in the spirit of openness and trying to encourage people to look at the materials around them. Only use these notes if you are competent and that suitable supervision is given at all times when required. I can accept no liability if anyone hurts or injures them selves or others from following these notes. I think it is fair to say that common sense and safety should rule the day. Use any paper or magazine you can get hold of. Consider if the ink will come off and be a problem, be careful of paper cuts if using magazines and watch out for staples. you will also need some long screws and scotch tape Bradawl, electric screw driver, two lugage straps, strapping or old belts, or string, or old school ties or gaffer tape or shoe laces or.............?
