Goal: "2D laser cut and engrave cover for a note pad. You must have both a cut process and an engraved process. The note pad will be 4.25x5.5 in size. You will need to laser cut the front and back cover boards for your notepad." from IDEA daily plan
There were multiple items that needed to be completed in this rotation unlike the 3D printing which only had one. I continued to stay focused and happy that I completed everything. By doing a total on 4 projects on the laser, if I include the key chain, I would say I have achieved a good knowledge about using the laser. You need to make sure you know how thick your material is that you are cutting. Also make sure that if you want to cut the lines on your illustrator file are RGB red and have a thickness of 0.0001. If you want to engrave text, you need to fill the text black, not just the lines. I also learned how to change the laser bed to the rotary jig to laser engrave the water bottle. Overall, I have gotten more comfortable using the laser, and I am happy with the projects I made in this rotation.
