Assignment 3. Final (Massing | Lasercutting)




Physical Model (DRAFT):
The material that I used for this model was 3mm box board, however for some reason the lasercut wouldn't cut through it even though all settings were adjusted to suite it. The pieces did fit together but it just fell apart and did not look very nice. I will print a new one using different material before final submission of the 3D models.

I decided to use plywood instead of box board since it didn't work very well.
