Group assignment: My work to the group work page and reflect on my individual page what I learned

Individual project (Make (design+mill+assemble) something big)

Modification of FABLAB.able Kinetic Seat

I have been designing the updated version of “FABLAB.able Kinetic Seat” to improve aesthetic, decrease material cost, length, and weight.

In this documentation, I will share the designing process of updating part.

Back Board position move forward for simpler structure.

Design a hole in the middle of upper back board to reduce weight and aesthetic which was strongly suggested by Anastasia the Co-founder of Fabricademy.

Extrude Cut the circle from the board

I found there is a conflict with the belt which holds the rotational axis from the frame.

I decided to move the back board more to the forward until there is no conflict with the belt.
