M3/FABRICATION FABRICATING DESIGN “LASER CUTTERS IN PARTICULAR HAVE FACILITATED THE CONCEPTUAL AND PRACTICAL MOVE FROM MAKING MODELS TO EXECUTING FULL-SCALE CONSTRUCTION” Iwamoto, 2009
By using laser cutter, the work had became lighter because I did not need to measure each strips and triangle for so many times which could result in errors and inaccuracy
MATERIAL CHOSEN: 1.5mm PLYWOOD Plywood is strong and flexible which is very suitable for the design as it had to follow the shape of the back as it curled
MATERIAL CHOSEN: 0.6mm POLYPROPELENE Polypropelene is very strong and flexible. It does not torn easily like optic card which was use for the earlier prototype
