Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What inspired you? (Please include images or links to sources of inspiration)
This week we should choose a design and apply the basics of using (laser cutter&3D printer )machine and software.
The inspiration this time is so easy ,Just we choose a nice design and apply the task on it, to focus on learning and understanding the machine mechanism & programs
-The 3D printing design is a cute keychain also I can use it as a mobile holder. This design is smooth and fit the shape of keys ,easy to put on my table and use it as holder.
-The laser cutting design is a mandela .I would like to hang it in my laptop bag ,I will add some pearls to it like this photo.

The assignment is creating Simple shapes with 3D printer and laser cutter.
3D printing
*The parameters of the machine are: - layers height (0.2)
-Infill (10%)
-pattern (linear)
Time 50 minutes
*The application that used for editing files is Cura
* download Stl file from thigiverse
* copy the file in Cura
* Edit dimensions & Infill & layers

The sessions this week were so enjoyable
I learned how to make perceptible design
I understood what are the SDGs
I and my peers
-shared our information that we know about the machines and the softwares we use
-Played SDG game
-worked in pairs , and shared our ideas in each task
-Took some pictures with the finals products we made

Laser cutting
The problem: IN the step of connecting the laptop with laser cut machine the machine did not recognize the laptop
The reason : The machine needs time to recognize a new device
The solution: I sent the file to another laptop that the machine already recognized before ,and print the file.
In the next time I will try to connect the laptop with the machine before my slot starts.
3D printing
The problem : error in printing
The reason : Z axis is negative
The action :Stop the process and edit the file ,reprint it
