I wanted to make the design like this shape
simple yet practical
so I chose this as a start and started modifying it on my own
at this week's assignment fusion was the super star
I did all the designing ,joining ,and dxf exporting using it
it gave me a whole look at the project before making it on reality
fusion is really a powerful tool that I started to fall in love with .
in this week's assignment I decided not to use the 3d printer ,
so we won't use cura this week
instead , all of our manufatcuring will be done using laserworks
the materials used in this design will only be the 3mm wood sheets
ans of course the 3m srews and nuts
softwares
I started with designing the ground and selecting the proper places tor the
t-slot
then I designed the back of the big box
then designed the right side of the big box
and copied the body to the left side component
then designed the front face
the other box was so much easier ,I designed the rear panel and copied it into the front panel component
then I designed one side and copied it to the other side
and the final touch was to design this phone /notes holder ,to keep them from sliding
then I extruded every face by 3mm to give it the 3 look , and using the joint feature I joined the right faces together so we get the final look below
this is the final look
for exporting the .dxf we choose every body needed to be exported and export them using the extension in one folder to organize them.
and repeat the process till we finish all the bodies we have.
after finishing the export we import the files into laserworks
to start organizing them and prepare the for the laser cutting
the only process we will be doing is to cut , so we will adjust the parameters to only cut.
then save the .rld file to give it to the lab specialist to start cutting
then we connect the machine to the laptop and from users we choose read
after reading the machine we choose download
and after that we go to the machine
take anew sheet of wood
place it under the laser nozel at a corner
then we go to
file -> choose the wanted file ->enter
the we select the current position to be our origin
and ask the machine to frame the shape so we make sure the sheet of wood is proper
then click the green button to start the process.

here we can see the final look of the design
after assembling it with the screws and nuts
using x slots and t-slots

I was trying hard to extrude the ground sketch but it was unable to be selected .
I like to hide the dimensions and constraint ,so did I to the profile
when the profile is hidden it can't be selected
when I searched it led me to autodesk official community
where I found my answer.

it will help me a lot to build a solid frame for my design
and organize the space inside for the electronics
slooooottsssss
slots are sooo cool
I think I'll never forget how to make a t slot ever again
and x slots are so beautiful
