Bacteriophage
3d printing
I looked through Thingeverse till I selected a design that I liked.
Laser cutting
I couldn't find any design i liked as dfx file so I selected a design and converted it to dfx
Development/Implementation Process

3D printing
First, I used thingeverse to download Stl design I wanted, then I uploaded my design to cura software and checked if it needs supports fortunately it didn't need any supports. Finally I clicked slicing, upload the stl file to sd file which is inserted to the machine then choose the filament color and set parameters it takes 3 grams and only 32 min.
Laser cutting
I converted the design to a dfx file, then imported it into laser work software and adjusted the dimensions as required.

Yes, I spoke about the supports with Mohanned and the lab operator, and they informed me that my design only requires prims, I was unable to utilise the 3D printing equipment, but the lab technician assisted me in doing so.

When you got stuck, what/who did you turn to? At what point did you have to pause to research or learn more before moving on? What are some mistakes, pitfalls, or challenges that others can avoid if they were doing this assignment?

I was confused about the supports, so I looked them up and asked Mohanned for clarification, after that I do some research watching tutorials and asked the lab operator too.

We utilised Laser Works software, which requires Dfx files. There are two different power and speed settings for both cutting and scanning, and my design took around 4 minutes to complete. the material was wood
Second, we utilised Ultimaker Cura software, which requires stl files. I uploaded my file from Thingiverse, the design requires no supports and takes around 32 minutes to print. the material was blue pla filament
