1. Principles and practices
Sketch a final project idea in which to apply the skills learned through the Fab Academy program.
2. Project management
My Git journey starts here.
3. Computer-Aided design
Use software to design in 2D, 3D and to render, animate or simulate your designs.
4. Computer-controlled cutting
Design and lasercut a parametric press-fit construction kit. Cut something on the vinylcutter.
5. Electronics production
Make an in-circuit programmer by milling the PCB, test it, and try other PCB fabrication process.
6. 3D Scanning and printing
Design and 3D print an object that could not be easily made subtractively. 3D scan an object and prepare it for printing.
7. Electronics design
Redraw one of the echo hello-world boards, add a button and LED, check the design rules, make it, test it!
8. Computer-controlled machining
Make (design+mill+assemble) something big!
