Digital Fabricaiton Quickstart

This session will be led by Jeremy Shiman.

In order to follow along with today's session, please have Rhino, 123D Make, and Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer. Additionally, please download all necessary template files from the 3 workflows below.

In-Class Exercise

Using a rhino model developed from one of the plaster casts, choose one of the three methods that have been demonstrated today and prepare a file that could be taken to the laser cutter or blade cutter.

Alternatively, use one the files here: triangulated model , lofted model , booleaned model
