These lookout structures have been designed to cantilever by slotting around a handrail. Each structure consists of two interlocking parts constructed from layers of acrylic sheet bolted together for both accuracy and ease of construction and deconstruction. The cantilevering sections taper and their central layers are perforated to reduce weight. The interlocking elements are solid so as to act as a counterbalance.
