Reflection

I really enjoyed learning how to laser cut for this project. I have never laser cut before this class, and I was alway intimidated by the process. Now after laser cutting the pieces for the clock I am comfortable laser cutting and using fusion 360! Even though I was stressed about how to use fusion 360, I am very glad that I got to learn how to use the software.

There was one mistake I made during my process that I ended up changing. I originally made the top layer 5 inches, but after printing I didn't like how it looked. So, I made the top layer 10 inches to make it consistent. That is the only thing I deviated from my original plan.

 Below is a picture of the 5 inch acrylic over my clock. I thought it looked bad, so I re-did a sketch in fusion and re-printed my layer to be 1o inches so it would match the other layers. Below is a picture of me holding up the 5 inch acrylic compared to my clock. But I am glad that I did the extra step of re-lasering the acrylic in the end because I feel like the clock looked better in the end.
