Carboard Project

Design:

Outline your design process

• Connor and I like a show called Naruto. The two main characters have different logos used by their clans, so Connor did one and I did the other.

What tools/commands did you use

• I made an 8 inch by 8 inch square and loaded an image into Inkscape(the clan logo). I traced the image to bitmap and then typed out the clan name underneath.

What techniques did you use

• N/A

Describe your work-flow

• • This was quite short, so I finished it and then decided to experiment with different powers on the raster to see if it would look interesting if the entire thing was rastered.

Mistakes made

• I didn't cut it on time.

Lessons learned

• Don't wait for other people to cut, and if the laser cutter isn't being used, go ahead and use it.

Timeline/scheduling issues/concerns

• N/A

Things done well

• Problem solving. The laser was registering the logo as the same color as the square, so when I was cutting, I had to stop the laser before it started cutting the logo.
