My first attempt was a dragon and chair.
I asked for a feedback from our instructor, his advice was to change to a more simple model.
I changed from a dragon to a Avengers' medal.
I changed from a chair "3 assembled pieces" to a coaster.
He suggested a simple model as a start in both 3D printing and Laser cutting in this phase "focus on the concept of work and methodology ".
Other peers helped by showing their output in Eureka-Media.
Overcoming Challenges
Overcoming Challenges
When you got stuck, what/who did you turn to? At what point did you have to pause to research or learn more before moving on? What are some mistakes, pitfalls, or challenges that others can avoid if they were doing this assignment?
When you got stuck, what/who did you turn to? At what point did you have to pause to research or learn more before moving on? What are some mistakes, pitfalls, or challenges that others can avoid if they were doing this assignment?
Mistakes:
choosing a very slim model with slim details that required a lot of supports that would affect the final finish quality.
Showing my files to the instructor before fabricating really helped understand more the purpose of task .
Research:
Finding free STL file that fit technical requirements.
understanding supports concept.

Watching megaphone pavilion
The pavilion’s façade will display up to three eight-metre-high faces at a time for a period of 20 seconds each, and anyone visiting the games can participate by visiting the 3D photo booths within the pavilion and having their face digitally scanned.
