Details

We want to reconstruct a giant shoebox. As it will be placed outside as an installation it needs to be robust. The boxes will be a simple 3d square (empty inside) à x=2m, y=6m, z=2m. We would like to get a quote for 4 boxes. Please also include in your quote rough travel costs to transport the boxes to the appropriate locations in London. The boxes should be painted (black for font and brown as background). No access into the box needed. Also, the lid should just be simulated. Please also note that the boxes should be created in your personal workshop - we don't have space for that.

Questions(3)

Hi Sophie, Where would there be delivered to? And when? Would there be space to assemble the boxes on site? Josh.

Hi Josh, they should be delivered at 3 several public spaces in central London. And our campaign will only start in June so they should be delivered on 01/06/19. Unfortunately, we don't have enough space. Therefore, we would be glad if you can organize a space to build them (of course you can include this cost in your offer).

OK great. My only concern is that Airtasker doesn't allow for staggered payments, so materiels would have to be paid for out of pocket potentially months before completion. Do you have a work around?

Sophie B.poster

Great, I'll have an ask around a few places around me that might be able to store items of this size for me. Will have my quotes for you by this weekend hopefully.

Okay great, do you think that not more than £5k per sneaker will do it (including everything)?

I can't imagine so, but will need to know slightly more about your expectations in that regard. A simple cartoon style sneaker made 3d would be simple. A complex curved, realistic shape and texture one would he far more work.

Hi sophie . For 1 box made in work shop lid stay's and hinges made to last out side . And delivered and fitted in central london. 2550. It will be a lot cheeper if i buy all materials if im making more and fitting more in a day. hope this helps. .Thank you .Tom M .

Hi Sophie, How are you planning on finishing these boxes? Painted? Or do you want left as plain wood? Do you need any access into the box besides the lid? Ie would you want a door in one of the sides? Thanks Leo

Sophie B.poster

Hi Leo, thanks for your reply! Yes, painted (black for font and brown as background). No access is needed. Also, the lid should just be simulated but not effectively be openable. Hope you can help us. Let us know if you £999 would be not enough.

*Let us know if £9999 would not be enough for this project.

Hi Sophie, Thanks for coming back to me. I think we can defiantly do this and come in under £9999. Where exactly do you need these installed? as they would need to be built on location. And how long would you want them to last?

Sophie B.poster

The boxes should last 3 months outside. They will be placed at several public spaces in central London when our campaign starts. So it would be great if they can be built somewhere else.

Hi Sophie, Unfortunately I would not be able to complete this project building the boxes off site, storage and transport of these would be very expensive. I could achieve the project constructing the boxes on site, and this could be done overnight to give an 'unveiling' effect for your campaign. Let me know if you think this could work, otherwise I wish you the best of luck and I hope this goes well. (I will keep an eye open for the results) Thanks Leo
