17. Wildcard Week

This week I tried to characterise my Laser cutter for bending acrylic. The goal was to find a way to mass-manufacture my spice-sleeve.

This week’s assignments:

Group assignment: Design and produce something with a digital process (incorporating computer aided design and manufacturing),
not covered in another assignment,
documenting the requirements that your assignment meets,
and including everything necessary to reproduce it.
Possibilities include but are not limited to wildcard week examples.
