This stool can be collapsed, like an umbrella, or opened into a stool by simply pulling or pushing the handle on the seat of the stool.
Jouin's One Shot stool is named as such because it is "grown" all at once. All of the moving mechanical parts are created in one print and the stool emerges from the printing machine complete; there is no assembly. This phenomena is unique to three dimensional printing.
The One Shot stool is part of the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, New York and the Art Institute of Chicago.
Stereolithography:
A thin layer of liquid plastic is spread over a platform in a large tank. A laser beam is then directed into the liquid, (guided by the CAD design file and the Magics software), solidifying the areas it comes in contact with. As each layer is completed, the platform holding the newly solidified layer shifts down a calculated thickness, and the process begins again: a new layer of liquid is spread, a laser beam hardens specific points in the liquid, and the platform and completed layers of the object move down yet again. In this way, layer by layer, an object is drawn in the liquid by the beam, with each new layer being hardened onto the previous layer. Once the object is fully built, it is raised out of the tank by the supporting platform much like a submarine rising to the surface of the water and the excess liquid flows away.
