Week #2 - Journal
Ideation
Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What were you inspired by?
Design a model of a simple mobile phone stand that may rest on a flat surface.
My Idea was to make back part then the two sides and conect them with screws and nut's
I care to do this idea to learn more about making 2.5D model.
I did some search on google to isnpire me.
Tool Chain
Which software/machines/materials did you use this week? Why?
To make it happen i used Fusion 360 to design the 2D parts.
keep in mind it will cut out of 3m plywood.
Design Process
Explain the design process of your assignment. How did you use the tool/software to design and/or simulate your assignment?
At first I started hands sketch the design that I want to make then by using Fusion 360 I start to draw it step by step, at first I drawed the back part (Ground part) then I start to drawed the side part and then I make a copy of it.
Fabrication/Implementation Process
Explain the fabrication/implementation process of your assignment. How did you use the machine/tool to manufacture or implement the design of your assignment?
at first I prepared the wood sheet on the laser machine that i will use to fabricat my mobile stand, then i downloaded the rld file into the machine by using laserworks app.
for cutting I used 65 power and 22 speed.
for engraving I used 20 power and 300 speed.
Community of Learning
Did you ask for feedback? What are the ideas that others have contributed or suggested? What was someone else’s idea that you built upon? How did you help your peers? How did your peers help you?
Friend of mine advice me to engrave one of my art piece on the back of the mobile holder it's a good advice very excited to cut it out to see how it will look.
Also I helped one of my peers to convert his desing from bodyes into componant by using fusion 360.
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 project?
It was a little hard to make T-slots for this design, i had to make sure the screws and nut's will fit in perfcet so i take the measure for the screws and nut's that came with the game kit.
Final Project
How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?
By converting this mobile stnad design to 3D and assemble it I can now do the same with my final project to avoid any measure mistakes before the fabrication.
WOW!
What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?
Converting 2D sketch into 3D it was amazing and i will never forget some shortcut in Fusion like J for Join :D
I Also learn to add appearance to my 3D model.
Weekly Digest [OPTIONAL]
Tell us about any other cool things that you've made this week: Pre-activity, examples, exercises, or any mini-projects.
Using Fusion 360 I designed 3D vase to be fabricated using Laser Cutting.
