Final Project Design Files

The Design

A Doug-stool.

Using the primesense/reconstructme scan of myself from Week 5 - 3D Scanning and Printing, i've designed a stool
which 'demonstrates the potential uses of the fablab equipment'. A goal for our class/lab this week.

The dimensions are approx. 1000w x 400d x 460h (to the base of the curve)

16mm thickness:

Nesting:

Currently poorly nested and requires 6 full sheets.

Further attention required.

The Machining

Due to the jewish holiday Passover, machining was not possible this week.

To Be Continued

This design was eventually not used due to the amount of material that would have been used/wasted - see other cnc machining links above
