http://youtu.be/QsN4k3Zm4H8 The aim was to design a laser cutter as economically as possible (~4500 euros). During my research, which included studying other open source projects,  I became aware of a new kind of laser — a diode laser — which can move through optical fibers. This enabled me to have a free-standing multifunctional head while also making [...]

  http://youtu.be/QsN4k3Zm4H8 The Aim was to Design a laser Cutter, Economically as possible (~4500Eros), That can be multifunctional and with up to date technology Even to have 5 axis laser cutter Study from other Open sources Project and design a multifunctional machine Using a a small diode laser let me have more working space, less energy consumer and more precise [...]

Open source laser Machine, but in the same time it is a collaboration with laser company Study from the open source laser cutter I found the almost half of its price goes to the machine construction. Because of its use the construction need to be from strong and laser prof (as much as possible). Therefor the Machine [...]

Study from the open source laser cutter I found the almost half of its price goes to the machine construction. Because of its use the construction need to be from strong and laser prof (as much as possible). Therefor the Machine design was very importent I tried to optimize the parts and by that to lower the cost [...]

5 stepper motors control (maybe 2 will be servo) 1 camera controller 1 switch (on off) when open the door 1 Z distance check 5 axis checking  Vacuum Machine on off Laser controller – On off power New Machine Design V5 – http://www.jumbomail.co.il/Downloads.aspx?sid=13fb9b0692d74061866fd9af05f10aa8

Building the RepRap 3D printer New Design by Sefi 5 Axis Laser Cutter – Machine Design For Designing my Machine I used the Open Source Laser cutter project Lasersaur This project is amazing and they have great solutions in it that I adapted,   The differences are  that i build 5 axis machine, they have only 2 axis, They use [...]

After playing with the dc controller and a computer fan (which can move only to one direction – to it frizzed each time it moved to the other one) , I wanted to use the stepper controller but I had some problems, couldn't send to software to the controller My Idea was to take an old radiotape and to control [...]

Using Processing with Video Capture class http://processing.org/reference/libraries/video/index.html filter the video Image and get only the white/Light as white color working with different frame rates and trying to keep in the void the white from each frame using the tool as pencil http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiMd_CW5Y5Y

Using 123D app scan of my face to 3d print it I need to close all the holes in the mesh I got. Than to operate the Makerbot I had some problems at the beginning do to the material place – It was lower than the machine and and the extruder couldn't take the material in it    [...]

  This week we needed to make some moulds and to cast into that I wanted to make 2 stuff 1 unsacled Fortune cookie  and clothing hook Because I wanted to do small stuff and maybe to cast it in metal I found a jewelry's shop to buy the drill bits and the wax modeling the Hook   milling [...]

In this week we needed to test the Milling tool heads, Speed and the differences between materials. And to build something BIG 1. FIrst I build a Chair and with students we made even bigger stuff 2. some material milling tests – Glass, Stone, Cement Board, Wood and Foam – Build a chair: (The chair design was taken [...]
