2D Sketching For Laser Cut
First
model design's main idea is to Sketching pencil holder
add a Tablet holder and Sticky notes
using Tabs and Slots
Brackets
add drawings to scan or cut
Then
Extruding and join them to have a real vision of how it will be

2-Sticky Notes holder for drawing or Noting.
3-Tablet holder.
*Import *.DFX files into Laser Work program .
*Define which lines will be cut or Scanned.
*Cut "Speed 30 Power 55".
*Scan "Speed 300 Power 30".
*Download the file into Laser machine.
2D Sketching For 3d Printer
First
Check the measurement of the Brackets to make sure that is they proper.
90ْ angle
15 cm
Then
Open Cura
Slicing, profile, and infill
Export it at gcode file.
Finally
print it
I Choose to print a Fine profile to have a nice texture

Lenght & Angles
Screw holes
Captive Nuts
Click on Bracket
Choose the multiply selection option
Then
Define how many copies are needed
finally
choose to arrange all models
Open *.DFX files on the machine Program.
Selecting lines For "Cutting and/or Scanning.

Done
Overcoming Ghallenge
I Faced this week many challenges that made me feel disappointed.
First
I posted on Slack App my design "I thought that I'm already designed a perfect sketch Just It lacks some minor modifications.
Israa Rageh the Instructor commented by asking Qs that make me look at my design in a deeper way.
Sherif Rashwan the Lecture In our Online session Caught my attention that I'll face a BUG when I connect 90ْ angle corners.
Then
I had to fix all BUGS by Drawing another sketch
having thoughts that I found hardness to link between the Design on a sketch and the design in reality.
Last
When I laser cut the design and try to fix it together I found these 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
on the back side
I try to Debugging it by using a drill
write 15 instead of 150 mm
the scanning was on the wrong side
I didn't count that I have to add 3mm after
T-Slot to hold the nail.
I feel proud of myself الحمد لله
Experienced challenges and Bugs starting from Sketching and ending with Cutting and Combining things
I took time in the lab trying to fix them...
Achieved almost 70 % of my vision

I like to play chess
Buying my own pieces
tried to buy valuable pieces, but the price is like gold
I think I'll design my own one :)
