Computer Controlled Cutting

This week we learned about computer controlled cutting. Our assignment was to create a press fit construction kit. First we had to design parts keeping in mind that the laser cutter has a certain margin of error.

I have created my press fit construction kit. The first try I accidentally printed it from gimp instead of inkscape so it only etched the cardboard instead of cutting it. The second time I successfully made my press fit construction kit.
