Design and Molding
Group Assignment
For the group assignment, we tested the CNC machine for molding the wax. I documented the process of using CBA's new CNC machine.
Designing Rock
This is the final design for the rock. I measured the size and the form of the rock with the paper that fits with my hand, and then used the Fusion to make the shape. Then I added the Native American's 'Man in the Maze' pattern, which is the symbol from Tohono O’odham or Papago Indians of the Central Valley in Arizona. A visual representation of the Tohono O’odham Indians belief in life, death, and the life after death. The maze shows our journey through life and the roads we choose, the many turns and changes. Through all of our struggles and lessons, we grow wiser and stronger as we progress towards the center of the maze. The meaning of the symbol was matching with the research question, so I decided to add the symbol in the rock. I used the svg file and extruded the pattern.
