Corian Curves



FifeX has been doing a lot of Corian work recently - not worktops but smaller and sometimes quite intricate shapes for various displays.

We were approached to build some bespoke Corian display stands for a company in Edinburgh - the stands would hold a small tablet computer.

We came up with the design shown here and gave ourselves a few headaches in the process. The main shapes were thermoformed and then joined at FifeX's workshop.

After hours of sanding by Dom, the shapes in the picture at the top became the shape at the bottom with joins that you can't see! The client was happy and ordered five more - we're ordering Dom a new shoulder!

Devil's Porridge

FifeX always likes making new contacts and we were delighted to be contacted by the Devil's Porridge to have a look at one of their exhibits that needed a bit of TLC.

The beer pump interactive challenges the user to answer some questions about alcohol during WW2 and has some surprising results.

FifeX was happy to do a fix on the interactive and send it back home in time for Christmas!
