CNC Manufacturing

CNC

Starting this seminar made me so happy. I am so interested in learning digital fabrication tools and CNC is one of the most interesting but at the same time I had little experience.

Concepts

I started thinking about some concepts to use the CNC machine to fabricate something useful for me. I wanted to test the 3D potential of the CNC, so I designed some rounded and organic shapes.

Talking with Edu and Adai, we thought that these first two designs were too complex and would take so long to cut. So I decided to make another design only with 2D cuts.

Prototype with Laser to test proportions and stability before CNC cutting.
