This week we've to design a prototype mobile holder with cardboard then by using fusion 360.
firstly, I choose a simple mobile holder to make it with cardboard Then, I changed my idea to an Elephant pen and mobile holder
i found it on pintrest.
A cardboard mobile holder
machine:
laser cutting machine.
software:
-Fusion 360
-laser works software.
Materials:
plywood for laser cutting machine (3mm)
laser cutting machine
To sketch the the elephant searched on google about mobile holder, choosed the picture then downloaded it in 2D
Then insert the photo to Fusion 360 then sketched it by using lines, splines and rectangles tools.
make the base and side parts fully defined.
Then extruded the sketch in 3mm thickness and assembled it.
Export this file i DXF format.
(video shows the assemble model) :D
Make the base part fully defined.
Make the side part defined.
To prepare the file for leaser cutting:
I turned on the laser cutting machine and made sure that the switches are on.
downloading the file into the laser cutting machine after i named it.
putting the plywood sheet in the workspace area and made sure by the lens that the distance from the nozzle and the sheet is suitable.
I made sure that the nozzle starts from the origin.
choosing the file name and press work frame to know the working area and finally, press start.
6- All the lines are to be cut thoroughly with speed of 18m/s for elevation part then i changed it to 15m/s for sides and power of 68%.
I deleted these extra lines before cutting.
Then i tried to assemble all parts together
After assembly
Then painted the parts with red color :D
I asked sherif fadl to help me in drawing the sketch, he send me a video to learn how to sketch with inserting the design and drawing it by canava tool.
when i was in the fab-lab to fabricate the mobile holder my friends suggested to paint it proper color
when i went to the fab lab to make the mobile holder, The design wasn't complete, No t-slots, No assembly (I can't assemble all parts) but i sketch new file on fusion, putting t-slots, assembly all parts.
Because i didn't add t-slot the prototype wasn't stable so i redesigned it again :"
The new design
the old prototype
I will use fusion 360 in my design project to sketch the design and assembly all parts together before cutting.
