The assignment idea is to get a laser-cut design A single-piece model and make it with the laser-cut machine. I chose the Chelsea coaster.
The assignment idea is to get a 3D design and print it with the 3D print machine. I chose Pubg Pan. I made it using Fusion360 and Ultimaker Cura.

1st Coaster:
I downloaded the print file from the internet.
( ← Click on the photo )
Assemble them in LaserCAD
check the setting of the cut and engrave
Download it to the laser machine and start
2nd Pubg Pan:
I downloaded the print file from the internet. (Click on the photo → )
Sliced it in Ultimaker Cura.
Check the 3D machine before printing
Then start printing
(2nd part)
LaserCAD (Program)
I arranged the design and gave each engrave and cut settings then download on the machine
Preparing for Laser-cut
After I finished the design, I chose the (Black) color set to cut.
Then choose the (BLUE) color set to engrave.
I downloaded the file to the Laser machine.
Get the power on, check for the lens distance on the wood sheet.
Close the glass door and start the process.

Ultimaker Cura (Program)
I sliced the Pan and saved it to the 3D machine (SD).
choose Pre-heat after that choose the file name and press start.
The Magic Touch
PROBLEM: I asked how to load and unload the 3D printer filament?
Mansoura Fab-lab team told me how to make it and when I searched also on YouTube, I could know what the meaning of filament and nozzle is, and how to correctly use the 3D printer.
after I started printing just 5 mins. Later I noticed that I used white PLA instead of Black PLA, I stopped printing, changed the PLA to black then started printing again.
Notice: Black PLA in this pan will be great especially in coloring as it has dark colors.
Camera slider
I have knowledge of how to make external parts of the project and how to connect each other some will be laser cut and the others will be printed in 3d printer.
How to set the 3D printer, Load, and unload filament.
How to prepare a laser cut machine for cutting and how to check the workspace before cutting.
Mobile Phone Holder ( prototype)
I made this prototype as a Phone holder with Umbrella on it in order to prevent lights reflecting on the phone screen while it on the holder.
