This week's assignment is to make our own design of a simple mobile holder on Fusion 360 software and prepare it for laser cutting.
Inspiration:
I saw a design phone holder on a Pinterest and I liked it so I decided to make one of the designs and have a design on it that I love

Step one.
I started taking the dimensions of the mobile to know the dimensions of the stand. I started by drawing a rectangle of 150 mm by 90 mm and I drew taps and T- a slot until the front shape is installed with the sides and the other front part on which the phone will be installed. Then I downloaded a cartoon shape from the website 3axia, I entered the program in Dxf format and placed it in the middle of the design. I made a circle from the bottom to pass the shipment through it and put all the dimensions and relationships until the shape became fully defined.
Step 2
Side-sketch then I started drawing the sides on which the stand will stand and I drew the tabs and the T_slot that will be attached to the front side
Step 3
Base -sketch I drew the base, which is a rectangle with tabs and a t slot added to install with the rest of the parts.
Step 4
Front -sketch
Step 5
I collected the parts on fusion 360
Different images showing the design
After finishing my design I export all sketches in Dxf files and import them in laser works.
Laser cutting processing
1- I entered the dxf file on the program (LaserWorkV6 )
2-I Put the file on the starting point of the machine and modify the cutting settings ( speed and power )
3- I Save the file in ( rld) format
Cutting settings
cut
color : black speed : 25 mm/s power : 30 %
cut
color : red speed : 250 mm/s power : 30 %
cut
color : blue speed : 350 mm/s power : 20 %

I click on download to send it to the machine.
After this I used the arrows) to determine the origin and set it, then check the frame of work is in on the used wood.
then click starts to start cutting.
After this, I connect all parts together using a t slot connection and Screw Joints.

I had a problem when I inserted dxf files on laserwork
When I was entering the file, strange and intrusive lines appeared, and when I erased them, they erased from the main lines in the sketch, but the lecturer, Menna, said the solution is that I separate the lines from the nearest point and erase them
I faced a problem when assembling the stand, as when I put the phone on the stand, I was not getting balance, so I redesigned the sides to get balance.

How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?
One of the skills I gained this week is how to Use fusion 360 and I learned all connection of wood to attach all parts with each other to create 2.5D object and that I will use in my final project
WOW!
WOW!
What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?

In the lecture of the week, we divided teams, drew the parts of the chair, and cut it with a laser machine.
