Foamcore aperture, Spring 2013
After completing a rubber band cart project in E28 (introduction to engineering graphics), I was left with a fair amount of unused foamcore.
This project was conceived of during the summer, after I moved into an apartment with a window on the door. However, it was put on pause as iterating the kinetics of various aperture blade designs by hand proved to be very time consuming. It was completed during winter break, after I was introduced to Solidworks in the engineering design graphics course.
Despite this being a totally random project, it allowed me to really appreciate the power and iterative speed of solid modeling softwares.
