<h3>Discovering Freecad</h3>
<p>After working on Onshape, I tried another 3D design program : <strong>Freecad</strong>.</p>
<p>I found tutorials (in french again) made by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@CADPrinter" target="_blank">CAD Printer</a> to understand the interface and the tools.</p>

<p>I started by opening a new document and I chose the workshop that will show the tools to create a new sketch.</p>

<p>After selecting the plane to work on, I chose the form I want to work as base. In this exercice I took the circle.</p>

<p>To draw the circle, you click once to place the center and by moving your mouse, you determine the diameter, that will be save by clicking another time.</p>

<h3>Discovering Inkscape</h3>
<p>I regularly use Adobe Illustrator. To try another program, I thought about Inkscape because I will have to use it with my own embroidery and sewing machine.</p>

<p>I've already tried 1 or 2 times tu use it but hated it as it isn't as user-friendly as Illustrator but the Fab Academy is a good excuse to give it another try so, thanks to Youtube (again), I've saved a tutorials playlist made by "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMCmz4rTAYpaOAVrJA6bbTHPxeKJyAwKP" target="_blank">Savoir pour tous</a>" video to learn it step-by-step.</p>

<h2>3. Computer Controlled Cutting</h2>
</header>
<section>
<p>This week I tried several 2D and 3D designing programs to find the ones that suit me best.</p>
</section>
<section>
<h3>My journey</h3>
<p>At first I had to catch up on the first week so I worked on the website (design and content). After finishing the biggest part of it I tried several the Onshape, Freecad and Inkscape programs for 2D and 3D designing (I'm already familiar with Illustrator and Autocad).</p>
</section>
<section>
<h3>Group project</h3>
<p>We designed some pieces in Inkscape and/or Fusion 3D to try out the laser cutter and understand the paramters that are important to keep in mind.</p>
<h4>Focus</h4>

<h4>Speed</h4>

<h4>Power</h4>

<h4>Rate</h4>

<h3>Individual project : parametric construction kit</h3>
<p>Despite the fact that I previously learned how to calculate the kerf and how to design a 3D object, I chose to use 2 websites to help me create the boxes I wanted to cut on the laser cutter for this assignment. Simple reasons : saving time and brain energy as it isn't easy for me.</p>
<span class="image object">
<a href="https://www.festi.info/" target="_blank"><img src="../images/festi-website.jpg" alt="Festi's website to create the laser cutter's files for a wooden box." /></a>

<a href="https://www.gravini.cz/" target="_blank"><img src="../images/gravini-website.jpg" alt="Gravini's website to create the laser cutter's files for a wooden box." /></a>
</span>
<p>I chose to work on a basic box as it will be the base form for my final project. By already cutting it in a smaller size in this assignment, I can have a first idea of the possibilities of construction.</p>

<h3>Individual project : vinyl cutting</h3>
<p>To use the vinyl cutter, I vectorised the Fab Academy logo and placed it on my notebook.</p>
<span class="image object">
<img src="../images/.." alt="Picture of my notebook with the Fab Academy freshly cutted adhesive white vinyl logo." />
</span>
<p>I measured the place on the notebook for the logo and made sure to adjust the vectorised file in Inkscape to fit in.</p>
<span class="image object">
<img src="../images/.." alt="Printscreen of the vectorised Fab Academy logo in Inkscape with the size informations." />
</span>
<p>After saving the file in .pdf format, I opened it in the vinyl cutter program, "Summa GoSign".</p>
<p>This vinyl cutter machine is a ".." and is interesting as his blade is a ... one.</p>
<span class="image object">

</span>
<p>Using this vinyl cutting machine is really easy.</p>
<p>...</P>

<h3>My Project</h3>
<p>As I said earlier, I took advantage of this week's assignment to cut the basic parts of my "pet house" project.</p>
<p>This helped me see and think about the parameters I have to take in consideration and what difficulties I can meet.</p>
