  • Stacking Up

    A common use of fabrication techniques is to turn a modeled 3D object file into something existing in physical space. This task of making a 3D file readable for the manufacturing process is known as “slicing” a model. This Post will go over the process of creating a parametric 3D model and then slicing it…

  • L-Systems

    L-Systems originated from the observations of micro flora growth patterns. The patterns allowed for forms of symmetry and growth through the use of rules. The L-Systems used in this post will utilize two main parts: the vocabulary and the axiom. The vocabulary is the apparent commands and the rule on iteration involving them. The Axiom…

  • Working With Lasers! (M2 Lasered!)

    For this Comp Fab assignment, I had to design three different designs using code that utilize the three main methods of laser cutting; Laser engraving/etching, vector line marks and the standard laser cut. Etching moves the laser across a designated area at fast speeds to leave a burned mark, but not much depth. laser vector…
