The assignment idea is to download from an open-source CAD library 2D design and 3D design to fabricate models on a 3d printer and laser-cut machine.
3D printed model
I used to watch Pokemon anime as a kid, then as I got older, I went to watching Naruto, and that's why this module is about the combination of shows for kids and shows for grownups. Pikachu Kakashi.
laser cut model
Tea coaster with a pattern is ideal for me as someone who likes patterns and drinks four cups of tea every day.

For 3D printing, I used
For 3D printing, I used
We use prusa i3 mk3 for 3D printing.
White PLA Filament.
We use Ultimate Cura Software to slice the 3d design and export it into a G-code file.
For Laser cut, I used
For Laser cut, I used
Morn MT3050D CO2 Machine to fabricate the model.
Plywood 3mm
We Use LaserCAD to send the Design to laser cut.

Open the file in Ultimaker Cura software to prepare the file for printing
Print settings are 0.2 mm layer height, infill 20%, and I used Touching buildplate support and adhesion. weight model is 10g and the dimension 36x3739x50.6 mm. printing for 1h.

After preparing the file to print, I export it into a G-code file to print, move it to an SD card, put the SD card in the printer, and choose the file I want to print, then the printer heats up and starts printing.

Send the file to cut.
Check the origin point.
Check if the area is clear.
Start cut.

When start printing the bed printer didn't clear, so Lab Specialist stop printing and clear the bed and start printing again.
I just want to line engrave the lines in red, not engrave the area, so I asked my instructor and he told me to change the setting from engraving to cutting and lower the power to 50 and raise the speed to 300.
The solution

Final Project
How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?
How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?
I got familiar with 3d printing and laser-cut machines, and use open source files.
the laser cut could help me to fabricate 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?

The laser cut can do any design in any shape, so that can open many choices to do while fabrication.
