Computer controlled cutting

assignment

design, make, and document a press-fit construction kit

I started to draw by hand the ide, the pises and how I want to make it

I decited to use Inkscape for this project.

Starting making a small pieces and cut it out in the laser cutter

I decited to use a MDF for my project, soon I realised that the pices was to small for my project and I was afraid that the figure cult not stand on his own.

This is a picture of my first testing

So then I made a bigger pieces, and the pressfit was happening wery nicely. So I understand what I need to think about when Im making a pressfit project.

Working upwards I had some thinking about the knee for my figure. I didint want it to be a wery big pice, but I think I did a good piece for that. Thoug I testit bouth a circle and a box, but I decited to go for the circle for the knee.

This is how the leg look like now

The figure is still in making, but I have come to understanding the consept of construction kit and how press fit works.

To be continued ...
