Assignment 3- Waffling experiment

1.Waffling Script

2. Laser cutting part

3. Laser cut in process (snapshot of Ai file)

Try different settings (material thickness, power level, cutting speed...) for laser-cut machine, one of it got burned.

Second option for Assignment 2

Assignment2-Grasshopper for 3D printing

1. "Divide" two curves

2. "SHIFT" all divided points and connect them to get the nest pattern and use ''Move'' function to make more layers (or duplicate series of same script group to increase the thickness of object) if needed.

3. Simply use "Pipe" tool to manipulate a 3D object.

4. Put in the MakerWare

Assignment1- Grasshopper for Laser cutting

Grasshopper script

Edit illustrator file and draw the pattern on them

Simple letter L with ai files

Experiments for creating a surface by grasshopper 3

Another way to duplicate shapes.

Experiments for creating a surface by grasshopper 2

More complex 3D shapes.

Experiments for creating a surface by grasshopper 1

The first experiment I took is based on "CrossRef" function which can duplicate points logically. Meanwhile, using a external point as a reference point to create gradual change.
And I also understand the use of "Loft" fuction.
