ITERATION 1 CNC Modelling

The design of the connection is made so the joint would be part of the hooke for hanging coat , but after the first attempt with the CNC machine it is realised that angular corner of the inner side of the profile is hard to achieve.

Secondly, the way to achieve an extended joint as hooke result in waste of materials so it may be unpractical for the current form.

Tool Setting:

Failure:

1. It is discovered that due to the round nature of all tools, it would be impossible for CNC to archive any sharp angle in the inner perimeter of the piece.

Concept

The second prototype continues to explore joinery but in a more 2D form. I also change from angular inner corner to round edge for the profile of joinery as it seems more practical for the CNC machine.

I then explored with other tool from the workshop and together the CNC prototype I made a coat rack.

I also want to achieve the piece with different pieces that can slot together as I aimed to used collected scraps to make the piece.
