CNC Final Tile_FinalReal_FinalFinal_v2

Waiting for the woodshop to open... laptop for time stamp. State of my tile: messy but kinda done? Trying to move the bit, error kept coming up. Cleaned up. Tile removed, only 1 pass succeeded before bill shut off power at 5pm and it didn't run all the way through, I was hoping for two passes so the step-over lines would turn into tiny cubes. C'est la vie. Cutting down to get a more symmetrical product Visited the photo documentation suite to take some HQ shots! AND THEY ARE BLURRY! #semesterofsaaraa Thats ok. I still want to re-shoot for my website, and then i'll return it to the thingtank.

Big thanks to Amanda for helping me out on this one! checking z ran into an error, asked for help! Thanks Bryan! started cutting peaced out "brb cnc". Check up - part-way through, looking good!! Went back to check on it at 5:09pm... WOODSHOP CLOSED at 5 not 7!!!! WHY??  The woodshop ours online AND on the wall are the same... open till 7pm. I assume they stopped power.... I guess we till discover how the final piece looks tomorrow in the next blog post.

Doorknob Attempt 2

Home Depot Knob Kit Measurements: Re-modelling with the new modular approach:  Prepping for 3D Print:  (approach without support material was selected) 3D Print + Assembly:  Final: Push can only be pushed, pull can be pulled and signifies that with how it can be grasped. Hopefully this can change the mental model of what we do with a door knob - clear signifiers exist without type to indicate the action needed-  oh, and smooth design minimizes clothes catching. They should be flush to the door though - that would be what I change for the next iteration.  Reflection:      I'm really glad I attempted this project again. I feel like I built one solution to a real-world problem. The new push knob is much more cohesive with the pull design and I'm glad the assembly was a more appropriate joining with the home depot kit. It's not perfect, I would like it to be more seamless and I really wanted to use screw-joints... but I'll have ...
