Protopiper allows users to sketch room-sized objects, such as furniture or statues, at actual scale.
The key idea behind the device is that it forms adhesive tape into tubes as its main building material, rather than extruded plastic or
photo-polymer lines. Since the resulting tubes are hollow they offer excellent strength-to-weight ratio, and thus scale well to large structures.
