Ten thousand welds
One shared iron plate. Each person welds a single point, and the point stays for everyone who comes after.

The real plate
When all ten thousand points are in, Federico Rodríguez Páez takes this drawing to the workshop and welds it, point by point, on a real iron plate. Time adds the rust.
That plate, one of a kind and numbered, goes on sale as a work. Then plate II begins.
