Laser cutting
First lesson - laser experiment
In my experiment I wanted to test how the ppi level affects the way the laser cuts.
I took four similar pieces of cardboard, the same size.
In the first attempt, the ppi level was over 100.
You can see that it really burned the cardboard.
After that when the ppi level was about 250 the cardboard also burned but a little more
When I put the level on 350 it seems less burnt and so also on the last level.
In terms of times, times have not changed so critically.
And so also in terms of print quality, although I think that if I had made the shape different, it would have worked.
Here I used a different type of material, I used wood.
In the wood, the cut should be sharp but you should be careful not to burn the wood.
And so I made a low speed so that it would pass between 5-10
Maximum power I did 85-90
Third lesson- Pop up, Kerfing and Origami, 2D to 3D
Here I also used wood and you can see that it also burned because I wasn't careful enough. The model below is a model I made for the studio from the same material and it came out less burned
The whole narrative of the models here are basically from 2D to 3D.
It was a layout and actually with the help of connectors I connected them.
Here I tried to create movement out of nothing with the help of lots of cuts
I used cardboard.
I made triangles of the same size. which actually created a surface that was able to move.
