Digital Fabrication with Rhino

Digital Fabrication with Rhino

Description:

In this activity, we will learn how to create files for laser cutting parts needed for a refined prototype of an illuminated product using 2D Rhino. We will start by exploring the basic tools and techniques of 2D Rhino and gradually build towards fabricating the parts we'll need to refine our prototype.

Instructions:

Start by downloading and installing 2D Rhino and familiarizing yourself with the software by going through the tutorials and examples provided.

Next, step by step build towards the project's expected outcome. Start by creating basic shapes and gradually adding more complexity to the design. 

Prepare the files needed by consulting your instructor and get ready to laser cut or 3d print the parts you'll need

Deliverables:

Your final product should be a set of files ready for laser cutting or 3D printing. 

You should document your progress along the way and create a set of slides to present to the studio. 

Your presentation should include a demo of the project, including a physical prototype made from the laser cut parts.
