3D Cellular Structure
This week I wanted to investigate the GIK approach as a way to rapidly fabricate and build discrete cellular
A single discrete part was used in 2 different configurations to form space-filling lattice structures.
Each configuration required it's own connection details, although the base "cell" was joined in the same way for each version.
The different configurations can be seen clearly from above.
configuration A
configuration B
Joints consisted of folded score lines, joiner plates, and tapered pins.
Even Fabio likes it!
There was a mishap, however, that hopefully everyone can learn from...
I forgot to clean the lens! Cutting cardboard produces a lot of smoke and carbon, so cleaning the lens periodically is critical to lens longevity.
Luckily no permanent damage was done, but it could have easily broken the lens and harmed the machine. (Photo credit: John D)
True that.
