Here are our ArchiCAD files for the CNC router. This took a really long time, both due to the fact that we're still learning ArchiCAD and because it took us a while to actually understand the CNC router and what it does. We've learnt so much though! Now I really hope our files will be alright though since the group before us had problems with this and we've spent a lot of time on these files so it would be a shame if it didn't work!
For our first design we have made an inverse of the top part of our honeycomb and are intending on casting the individual steps with plaster. None of us have ever casted before, so we're looking forward to try something new!
Although our second design (as seen in the image above) may look like it could be laser cut, it actually can't be since all the pieces are of varying thicknesses and it has some hollow pieces in it where the lighting is supposed to go.
We're excited to see our CNC cut pieces!
