This week, I started my third project of the third trimester. It is the rushed laser cutter course. Technically, it is not an actual project. It is a course that I will do really fast in order to be able to use the laser cutters better. The first project I was doing was a combination of 3 projects really. The first one was simple squares. You just had to laser cut some squares. That one I finished. The second project was called the box. You had to make a box that was 1000 ml in volume. You have to factor in the thickness of cardboard and it has to look clean. No glue showing. I have not finished this one yet. The third one is taking this box, cutting out some cool stuff on the sides and adding an led light inside that turns on when upside down. It is called the flip light.
Here are some screenshots

Here is one of my laser cuts in adobe illustrator to create my box and my simple squares.
Here is my other laser cut in adobe illustrators to create my box.
Pictures of the Box
This was my best box. The goal was to get 1000 ml in volume. This was 9996.6 ml. But it wasn't a good fit.
This was my second try at the box. Too much glue showing.
This was my first try at the box. Looks pretty good but isn't very functional.
