We came into the 3d lab with a strong plan.
-make the rubix cube out of steel
-weld the steel together to make cube blocks
-make a camera holder
-stick the magnets
We started by putting the steel sheets together and making sure that we knew how many holes were needed in each cube for the magnet to hold. We needed 18, 10 x 10 sheets of steel drilled with holes. The purpose for these holes are for the magnets to contract eachother when the blocks are stuck together. Our intentions is for the magnet to hold onto the steel and when connected, the magnets will hold everything together for the twist effect.
Welding was also a big challenge for me. With no previous experience and with limited amount of help. Time wasn't going to let us have practise time. I started off strugling on some practise sheets. But when the pressure was on, i gradually connected with the welding gun and i got to learn something out of this 3d lab which was good for future projects.
