What I want to do is design a inteligentesmart brick that create an interface between the user and the wall, where the uses can make an installation on the wall  and can change the position of the objects without milling. To do this, the bricks are designed with some gaps or holes that when we [...]

This is my construction kit, based on 3 pieces, the first is a 70mm x 40mm rectangle and the other 2 pieces are to join these rectangles, one of these pieces is straight, the other is curved for make changes in differents directions, this pieces can be assembled to create a small “wall”, for separate spaces or to create a lamp or make a small sculpture. This is a modular system for build easy lamps [...]

I made the FabISP in 2 version one is the Tiny USB version and the other one is the USB version. We use 2 strategies, the first one is for mill the circuit, and the second is for cutting the circuit board and get it out. An this is the result…

At first I take some photos of me from different angles and them I download 123D Catch, that is a free beta software of Autodesk that makes a mesh from pictures and creates an escene…   The secon step was modificate the mesh for make a mold for the modela….   An i mill it… [...]

At first I desing this 3 pieces in rhino, that is part of my project Smart Bricks, I exported as an .STL file…       Then I opened it in Replicator G, I generate the code and removed this two lines from the code, because I am controlling the heat of the platform and [...]
