Week 4 Notes
Computer controlled cutting
Previous knowledge / experience
Tesselation of pieces for reduced material wastage
Assembly
Building and expanding hex shelfs laser cut mdf
Kerf bending testing for external shell - our kerf was not measured correctly and it simply didnt hold being reassembled - deied the project objective
prepping the backing image for our Durable shelf
Laser cutting the brighton skyline - Took hours
Hex Brighton
after finishing
For our Durable project, we tried to keep the hex shape as consistent as possible so tried kerf bending patterns that imitated that
Testing stuff out
trying to work out 3d viewer for stls
3d viewer ref more gitlab for stl

Attempting to host the stl in creative cloud may not be the answer.. the url is a little bizarre:
"https://assets2.adobe.com/resource/img/defaults/tile/unknown.png"
3js
three.js looks very interesting
notes
task: vinyl cut and construction kit laser cut
the vinyl cutter was pretty detailed from what i saw of Luiz's stuff
link to st hot wire cutter project
wire edm seems interesting look up
wonder if ethos would work at least for placement on the laser cutter that is in the fablab?
transfer adhesive - protect plus transfer adhesive to cut onto other materials.
half print, install vinyl circuitry rest print
ALEX put this in your thing ! auto circuit in your machine. swappable head that is part vinyyl cutter or something i dont know just cool!
3d circuit.. lights that pattern out as the circuit circuits..
3d circuit with thermochromatic vinyl material below heatsinks. fidget cube - leds - thermochromatic! reactive af!
+
ref for that: could be interesting to watch
can we make stuff now please
japanese wooden joints
oh laser cut gauge thing would be handy or gauge plus the odd measurment thing from ig
lovely
laser= light amplification..
look up that internal bubble laser cut again.. i forget the process
fibre-metal, co2 - like uni laser, no metal, other type forgot.
get co2 to cut copper for traces?
durable = material waste hell!
although now useful to see what not to do :-D
side note: iframe kanban?
rewatch this section on laser set up and airflow sun eve? too late? difficult to plan atm. if I can markdown a plan kanban style as I doc, might make flow better or just ongoing at least. table could perhaps work.. ?
doc note - work though the weekly thing commenting thoughts on each or further learning oints. Pre structurable too.
cool af
what about lasecut glass? - bubble lasering - forgot
spectography
possible project change idea.... percolating.. build on last week practice...
what was that project that made the book with all the things? think des has the link? tree lights. force swing. ........
possibly just cad related? maybe link with electronics? obv needs some, but emphasis/visable/used interactively?
