3. Computer controlled cutting

This week I have also been a bit behind schedule because of a family emergency but trying hard to catch up. I took a look at the laser in our Fablab and did some experimenting with the laser and the Vinil cutter. I did not complete the group assignment but did some of it.

When I started assembling the kit, it started to look like a figure so at the end it needed a head. So, back to Fusion 360 and drew a head for the figure.
