Wooden box

Not much happened with engineering today. I had discrete mathematics today, came back from class and received a letter from the MECOP program saying that I had been accepted! http://mecop.ous.edu/

I finished modeling a wooden box to cut out of .25" thick wood on the Epilogue laser cutter at the tech shop. It was surprisingly more difficult to model then the rotary table... This is because the geometry of the lid required me to do some math. Also the corners of the boxes required some interesting thought which I had not performed before.

I'm going to have to convert it to a DXF file, or make a drawing file from the model because the Epilogue 45 Watt CO2 laser cutter needs lines defined as hairlines and converting between file types sometimes you lose that vector based geometry in the image.
