Group assignment

  • Characterize your lasercutter’s focus, power, speed, rate, kerf, joint clearance and types.
  • Document your work to the group work page and reflect on your individual page what you learned.

Individual assignment:

  • Design, lasercut, and document a parametric construction kit, accounting for the lasercutter kerf, which can be assembled in multiple ways.
  • Cut something on the vinyl cutter.

To do:

  • Link the group assignment page.
  • Explain how I created my parametric design.
  • Document how I made my press-fit construction kit.
  • Documented how I made something with the vinyl cutter.
  • Include my original design files.
  • Include hero shots of my results.

Learning outcomes

  • Demonstrate and describe parametric 2D modelling processes.
  • Identify and explain processes involved in using the laser cutter.
