First post! Used Recycled plastic bags to create an Ultra light Camping chair
For school, I created an ultra-light camping chair using recycled LDPE plastic bags that I pressed and sewed together to create the fabric for the chair. Then I modeled the brackets and 3d printed them in PETG; however, my new version uses PC as it's less brittle, so I don't worry as much when I sit on it. While not the best chair, I am really proud of it!

This video by Brother's Made was a big inspiration for using plastic bags as the fabric. So watch that if you want to learn how to graph the pieces of plastic together!
Just wanted to show it off as I'm still getting accustomed to sharing my work more, and wanted to inspire people to try to make something hard!
Let me know if there is something else you would like to see with this design, or if you have any questions about the process, as for sharing the 3d printed files. I'm a little on the fence, as there is still some stuff I want to change and continue to work on, but I'm happy to answer questions about dimensioning and such!
