When accounting for the laser kerf, I offset the path by a little less than usual so that the pieces would more easily slide together-I didn’t want them to fit so tight that they might break when disassembling the stand.Location: 22043 Highway 33, Crows Landingĭon’t underestimate the deliciousness of El Azteca Taco Truck-people drive for hours to munch on their famous Azteca, asada, shrimp, and cheese tacos. I did learn from that prototype, and redesigned the cross-beams, making them twice as tall to better prevent the sides from wobbling or leaning askew. I was reasonably confident in the design, but wanted to make sure the angles weren’t too narrow or too wide for the shells, which would have inconsistent shapes. The first prototype was cut out of cardboard. Then I just drew the side design right on top, using those lines for reference. I used quick rectangular wireframes to identify the bottom and top width of a standard taco shell, and used align and distribute tools to evenly space the three tacos out across the flat portion of the plate. The design process was a little unorthodox because it was going to be such a simple piece, it was easier for me to design each sides by laying them out on a top-down layout of the plate I threw together in Illustrator. The cardboard prototype holding a still-packaged stack of shells. The worst part is, we’ve known about this problem for years and have known the solution for nearly as long and just never bothered to get it done. It requires a kind of digital dexterity to hold three hot shells in a vaguely upright position while filling them with hot ground turkey without hurting yourself. We use long rectangular plates, and typically prepare three shells. You’d think with that kind of frequency I’d have all of those steps streamlined already, but that last bit? It’s never been an easy task. Then, drop some of those piping hot shells on your plate and stuff ’em full! Douse the browned meat with Jennifer’s secret recipe taco seasoning. Pull together some shredded cheese, sour cream, and a selection of hot sauces. Brown the ground turkey, bake the shells, and chop up cilantro, onions, and black olives. Not quite weekly-Taco Tuesday be damned-but we have tacos at least once a month. Tacos are just easy enough to prepare, and give me just enough room to experiment with adding spice, that it’s a meal I put together pretty frequently. Cilantro, onions, black olives, sour cream, cheese, and some hot sauce.
