At this point I had produced a more detailed working drawing of the piece i wanted to create with measurements and how the mechanism would work, I had also perfected the drawings on 2-D design that I needed for the laser cutter and had laser cut test pieces from both mount board and acrylic. We discussed the finishing off of the piece as well as the fact I should look at alternative outcomes and potential for future ideas and present them on my blog.
These are pictures of the test pieces, I was satisfied with the shape etc and so my drawings were finalised. I had decided to use a 6mm rod to act as the pivot so that the pieces could still open and close but would still be secure, I also wanted to cut out small spacers to put in between each of the layers.
