Here is another project where I have used Sketchup to make the illustration and the construction. You can find more photos here: http://pietervermeersch.blogspot.be/2010/09/nieuwe-fotos-project-m2.html

Here is a video where you see how I cut angled corners onto the different pieces. (Do not try this at home actualy. I am not following the safety instructions closely).

Quite job... I was thinking that this must be done with laser cutting

pieterv

Hey Notareal,

All the peices are done with lasercutting, but I have done the angled corners with the saw.

Tobobo

That is very nice work.

Did you use layout to arrange the pieces for the laser cutter?

pieterv

Hey Tobobo,

Thanks, I have used illustrator to arrange the pieces.

When I did my MA, I used Illustrator to do the same thing but then had to eps it. As the driver only worked through Corel Draw.
