4. made half modules for finishing seams
5. made nr 5 a square because difference impossible to see by eye
6. only using 1-8 so left out 9 and 10
7. scaled the size of the set so that the nr 5 is 40x40mm
for ease and speed of cutting and assembling an entire garment. The smalles piece looked beautiful but is very fragile and hard to assemble.
8. increased slot size by 10% due to material thickness (will test first)
**Ordering material**
I ordered 4 metres of pink 2mm EVA foam (90cm width) to make sure I have enough for the jacket. In the future I would like to work only with leftovers generated in our lab however. We use these sheets for the vacuum thermoforming machine. We cut the big sheets into smaller ones that fit the size of the vacuum window but there's always a lot of waste that is offered as free material for students. We only had enough for testing at the moment though, not for an entire garment. I ordered at Marion Hoop Design's [Webshop](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=marion+hoop+design+foam+fuchsia). Boerenbonthal used to have it but it's gone out of their collection. Hoop is currently one of few retailers to stock this material.
