The idea of the assinment
Designing a cool sunglasses which non-traditional one with a different shape type not square or circle.
the sunglasses is from 2 parts one is will be 3d printed which is the arms and the other one will be laserr cutting.

It is my own idea I trying to get out of the traditional shape of the glasses so I descided to be polygon. like the picutre below but with some twist.
Tools and Machines
Tools and Machines
Prusa mk2 machine is used for 3d printing
PLA filment
with green color
Elmalky laser cutter is used for laser cutting process
3mm ply wood is used for laser cutting
Fusion 360

Design Steps
Design Steps
Step1
Step1
First, Open "Fusion 360".
Step 2
Step 2
After opening make a new file and save it.
Step 3
Step 3
Start a new sketch on the top plane
Step 4
Step 4
Then start drawing the sketch of the front part of the Sun glassess by making a circle its diameter 39mm
Step 5
Step 5
from the same center point of the circle draw a hexagon making it fully defined by putting the dimentions.
Step 6
Step 6
Add the middle lines of the sunglassess
Step 7
Step 7
Make a center line to mirror the side of sunglassess.
Step 8
Step 8
Make trim for areas needed to trim and fillets also make the sketch fully defined.
Add two holes for the screw . the holes is 3mm diammeter
draw it by using the circle tool.
Step 9
Step 9
Then finish the sketch and extrude the front part to 3mm.
And give it the appearnce of the wood.
Step 10
Step 10
Then, on the rhigt plane draw the sketch of the arms.
by using rectangle tool its dimension 92.3*8mm
and draw an other rectangle with 50*8mm dimension and its angle on the horizantol line is 60 degree
Step 11
Step 11
For the L shape draw a line its lenthe is 8mm and far 5mm from the front of the sunglasses
Step 12
Step 12
Extrude the arms to 5mm.
After extrude on the L part draw a sketch of a 3.3MM diameter circle then extrude cut it to make a hole.
Fillet the edges on 0.5mm radius and chamfer some esges.
Move the arm to edge of front part.
Then chamfer the L shape with 3mm
Step 13
Step 13
Mirror the arm to the other side.
Step 14
Step 14
Preparing parts for fabrication
by saving arms parts as mesh to be ready for Cura
Step 15
Step 15
And saving the front part sketch as DXF to be ready for RD works.
By right click on the sketch of the part and choose save as dxf
Step 16
Step 16
Preparing arms file for printing.
first, Rotate the objects to be lay flat on surface.
second, make the layer hight 0.3mm
infill 10%
Printing temperture 215
Then slice
It will take 32 Min
and 7 gram
Step 17
Step 17
Preparing front file for cutting.
first, import the file to Rd works.
Then put the cutting parameters which is:
Speed:40
Power: 50-55
Fabrication Stage
Fabrication Stage
After slicing we save the file on the SD card then put it on the Prusa Mk2 machine.

Making the sketch fully defined after trim and mirror action
Making the sketch fully defined after trim and mirror action
the sketch before trimming is fully defined
the sketch before trimming is fully defined
the sketch before trimming is becoming no fully defined

It can help me how can I fabricate my design and any way of fabrication is the best for its parts.
