Week 11: Physical Models

After the whoopsy on Friday let's give it another crack. I chucked my insert model onto the print with Roberts and Maggie. But no. There was a glitch I Robert's file which caused the print to off set at two stages. Unlucky for me, my print partook in the first stage.

Insert
Software: Autodesk Inventor, Netfab, UP
Materials: Plastic
Digital Fabrication Tool: 3D Printer



Deathly Hallows Sign
Software: Adobe Illustrator
Materials: Acrylic
Digital Fabrication Tools: Laser Cutter

Final cut pieces 
Joined with LED in its slot
Sphere Base
Software: Autodesk Inventor
Materials: Plastic
Digital Fabrication Tools: 3D Printer

Speaker representation holes turned out wonderfully, so happy with them, and they good as well
Circle in the middle this time as the two separate holes proved difficult to use 
Bottom of sphere. This time round I printed the model on its side to avoid the scaffolding catastrophe of last time. However the model warped so it is a little ovular now. this would have been alright but now the base insert gets stuck inside the sphere and requires force to place all the way in and to remove it. It also doesn't twist in it bayonet fitting because of this
Bayonet fitting printed well again
Sphere Base
Software: Autodesk Inventor
Materials: Plastic
Digital Fabrication Tools: 3D Printer

Insert finally fully printed at the right size 
pinch-able bit for placing insert in sphere and removing. Not that it works because of the warping of the sphere
