Cardboard and sticky backed plastic are being employed in a world record attempt in Bridlington this weekend.
It all revolves around building a giant model of a trojan horse.
Lee Threadgold is from the Animated Object theatre company who are co-ordinating the record attempt, he says it's going to be something of a giant.
Local people are involved in trying to create the world's largest sculpture made entirely from cardboard.
The trojan horse is going the be the height of three double decker buses.
Lee Threadgold says it's required some careful planning.
Construction has been taking place over the last few days with finishing touches being added over the weekend.
🪜 Just another afternoon in the office!
