1/32 model
The above model was cut on a CNC controlled router machine owned by the school. 36 flat shapes were cut out of a 4'x8' sheet of 1/8" masonite. Registation holes and screw holes were drilled as well. The registration holes were needed to assemble the model acurately. The shapes were generated in MicroStation from the three-dimensional model.
