The project was given through a digital model file, opened by slicer 360 Autodesk. By studying the model from the given file, the model was divided into 7 parts for 7 members of our group.
The model was separated to lots of slices for laser cutting use. Making the template model into a solid waffle model.
2. Assemble the waffle template
After laser cutting all the pieces, whole group member contribute to assemble the model into a beautiful waffle.
Basically, the waffle template was covered by masking tape in order to draw outlines easily. I decided to do the roof part of the car, so I used tracing paper to trace the contour line of the roof part then trace it down on the aluminium sheet.
4. First attempt after cut out the shape of the roof
Because the roof part of the car includes three difference surfaces, it was going to be really difficult to hammer them into a one beautiful piece. Therefore I had decided to cut the top roof part into a single part then finish the two windows off the side.
Since the first attempt failed, we decided to make a whole piece then refine it nicely afterward.
6. Second attempt difficulties
The angle between three different surface was basically the most difficult part to finish, so we decided to cut the line off and knock it into the windscreen.
7. Almost finish the whole thing
Tried to work with other parts of the car.
8. Polish and Assemble
Looking great!...Maybe...Hahahah
