Man Base Build
Building the Man Base structure at Burning Man USA
I was on the carpentry team (~20 people) constructing the Man Base structure for burning man USA.
12-16 hour days for two weeks in the desert building big structures, decks, stairs and railings.
Managing a very tight timeline while keeping my survival in mind - it was hot at times.
My first time building at significant heights in a harness as well!
So far, the most ambitious and largest project I've been a part of.
Interesting to see how the different teams interface with one another respectfully (design, carpentry, electrical).
It was incredible to see all our work go up in flames after a week of being witnessed by everybody else there.
The city grows from a few trucks and containers to 60,000 people in two weeks, then back again with no trace.
