Sam Day: Assignment 1

I learned a lot of important tips and tricks throughout the process of this assignment. First, be smart about laser cutting. Besides inconveniences with time slots, try as much as possible to create iterations of your design. I did not do this and wish I did.  Varying the power and speed of the laser cutter changes the outcome of the acrylic; too much power or a little too slow in speed can result in melting the plasticized material. Because of the issues with laser cutting, my craftsmanship struggled -- I would complete this project much more efficiently and cleanly if repeated.
