Week 17 - Making Even More Benches

This week in class we have been making the final benches required for the outdoor learning environment. Fourteen benches were need to be made, and we made about eight this week. As usual we routed the edges of the "A" braces for the benches. Now the final stage will begin for most of the benches, which is applying the wood finish. After this all of the benches will be completed and the we will be one step closer to finally completing all of the outdoor seating.  

Week 16 - Making Benches

This week in class we have started to produce benches for the outdoor learning environment. The benches use an A shapes brace to secure the bottom of the bench. We also had to use the wood router to round the edges of the braces. The main issue with making these is aligning the braces properly, which can pose a challenge. Once these tables and benches are produced a good chunk of the work will already be done.   

 

Week 15 - Transitiong From Tables To Benches

This week in class we continued to make more tables, but the transition is beginning to go from tables to benches. The tables are being produced at a fast pace, and staining the tables has also began. Before staining can begin the tables must be sanded, and much of the wood has mold marks. These mold marks must be sanded down to reduce their presence. So now the tables and benches are being made simultaneously.

   

Week 14 - More Tables

This week in class we made more tables for the outdoor learning environment. I used the wood router to round the edges of the pieces of wood to give it a more professional look. We also made templates for a good amount of the pieces in order to mass produce the wood pieces. In total we were able to produce two tables this week.

Week 13 - Working on Tables

This week I have been working on assembling the hexagonal shaped tables. These table are for the out door learning environment, the main challenge behind assembling these tables is aligning the boards. We mainly placed in support boards for the table top, and sanded down some areas. Overall the project is advancing at a good pace, so far we have four out of eighth tables.

  

Weeek 12 - Making Sarin Gas

This week in Max i made a 3-D molecular model of sarin gas. i put on mental ray rendering, with ceramic textures. i then put the rendered video file in adobe premiere, and exported it as an avi file. the molecule consist mainly of spheres and cylinders.

  

Week 11 - Almost Done With the Tank

This week in Max I've been constructing the finishing touches to the tank. The main task to complete is to add some detail tubes to the main tank gun cabin. To finally complete the tank 100% I will need to add textures to the tank. The one way to do this will be a multi-sub object texture, The final challenge will be finding a proper texture pictures to use.
