Box Instructables
I am making a box for my engineering class and this box will stay in my teacher's classroom so that he can put in some hot glue guns.
We will be needing:
Computer
USB
A laser cutter
Wood glue
Sand paper
A can of red spray paint
I designed a box in boxdesigner and uploaded it to my flash drive.
In adobe illustrator, I turned my box designed from a pdf to a ai (adobe illustartor) format.
I went to laser cut my box in the MakerSpace at school.
I inserted my flash drive into the computer in the MakerSpace.
I planned my layout and saved it on to the laser cutter.
I put in a piece of wood into the laser cutter.
I turned on the machine and found my file and pressed Start.
I waited until all the sides where lasered cut and turned off the laser cutting machine and got my piece of wood out to start structuring it.
I glued all my sides together and waited until all my sides were fully dry.
Then I sanded my box in order to make it more smooth.
I spray painted the inside and outside of my box in order to finish it off.
