Welcome to my FabAcademy page. During the next weeks I will document my progress here. You are welcome to have a
look at everything.
work through a git tutorial, build a personal site in the class archive, describing you and your final project
model (raster, vector, 2D, 3D, render, animate, simulate, ...) a possible final project, compress your images and videos, and post it on your class page
design, lasercut, and document a parametric construction kit, accounting for the lasercutter kerf, which can be assembled in multiple ways, and for extra credit include elements that aren't flat
make an in-circuit programmer by milling and stuffing the PCB, test it, then optionally try other PCB processes
design and 3D print an object (small, few cm3, limited by printer time) that could not be made subtractively 3D scan an object (and optionally print it)
redraw an echo hello-world board, add (at least) a button and LED (with current-limiting resistor) check the design rules, make it, and test it
make (design+mill+assemble) something big
read a microcontroller data sheet program your board to do something, with as many different programming languages and programming environments as possible
design a machine that includes mechanism+actuation+automation
measure something: add a sensor to a microcontroller board that you have designed and read it
design a mold around the stock and tooling that you'll be using, mill it (rough cut + (at least) three-axis finish cut), and use it to cast parts
add an output device to a microcontroller board you've designed, and program it to do something
design, build, and connect wired or wireless node(s) with network or bus addresses
write an application that interfaces a user with an input &/or output device that you made
Design and produce something with a digital fabrication process.
Propose a final project masterpiece that integrates the range of units covered
