11th Week, Machine design



GEAR-Ability



In the machine assignment I worked along with Deepti dutt Srinath, and Abdullah Ibrahim on a drawing machine inspired by the spirograph.

The documentation of this wonderful experience can be found on our GEAR-ability page.

My personal contribution throughout the project was mostly on the fabrication of the pieces and the assemblage of the whole, and of course the final trouble-shooting. As a result most of my work can be found in our fabrication page. I prepared the pieces and made the fabrication files, used the machines (lazer and CNC) to cut them and then sanded and assembled them.

What is more, I was responsible for the production of the video. To make the video I used a Nikon D3100 for the shooting, and Adobe Premiere for the editing.

Except from the minor tasks which were distributed in the team, most of the process we worked together, and so I helped every other member of the team as much as they helped me. This was great because we all gained a good understanding of the whole process, as we were always involved in it.
