Motorized coffee grinder
Summer 2018
To save money, I purchased a hand-crank coffee grinder. I quickly realized I would rather not grind coffee by hand, so I set out to motorize my coffee grinder. This project was an opportunity for me to combine CAD, 3D printing, laser cutting, and electronics into a single project. I established workflows for getting from CAD to a physical prototype.
Laser cut living hinge
Fall 2016
Using a specific cutting pattern on a 60 Watt CNC laser cutter, I was able to create flexible joints out of 1/4″ plywood. I adapted this property to a previous design to create a box where the entire side portion is one continuous sheet of wood.
Light Writing Drone Photography
Winter 2016
My friend and I photographed a custom built quadcopter. We used timed exposures and specific flight patterns to create these images. These light trails intuitively represent the path of the quadcopter during the exposure.
