| |
| − |
| |
| − | We met our teacher, they talked about the things we can expect and what we are going to do.
| |
| − | The goal is to build one or two plotter machines together. And everyone has to make something with it.
| |
| − | The homework we got is to make 3D-prints for specific parts of the plotter.
| |
| − | We are divided in groups, and every group prints their parts two times so we can go ahead with it next class.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | We went into the workshops to be able to make the machine from all of the 3D printed parts. For example we had to make the holes for the screws a little bit bigger by filing out the extra plastic.
| |
| − | Then every group assembled their part of the machine and when class was over, my group has put the whole machine together.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Class started with an explanation from Jesse about the plotter and how it works. How the file is supposed to be sent, what programs we should use and some codes to make the plotter do what you want. Then the class was divided in there groups: painting, non painting and knifes.
| |
| − | My group is painting. We want the plotter to make a drawing by dipping a brush in ink and make an illustration. The idea is that all the groupmembers make an illustration and then let the plotter mix them all together.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | This lesson was a bit slower. I was in a little later because i had an open course, so i missed the intro. But my group made their illustrations. The other two groups experimented with the two plotters And we downloaded the programs. We discussed with Jesse that next week we are going to program the plotter to make it dip a brush in paint and make an illustration.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Today i was sick. My group made illustrations for the plotter tondraw at the exhibition. I heard they didnt program the plotter with Jessy so thats unfortunate. Now i think for the exhibition we will use a brushpen instead of brush and ink or paint because we all have no idea about how to code it.

| |
| − | Today everyone could demonstrate their ideas for the machine. Not many people showed up but it was fun to see everyones take on what was possible with a plotter machine. My group and me went a little earlier to school, hoping Jesse could help us with setting up the code because we really wanted to see if it would work to make the machine dip a brush in ink and draw and dip again. We managed to get the machine do what we wanted! And i understood the coding that Jesse explained well. At first we tested the brush to be dipped in the ink after every drawing, but we found out that there would be way to much ink in the brush. We experimented a little with this and made the code so it would dip the brush in ink after a few (i think it was 5) drawings and do 5 more. The machine was not level or had a little bit of its own will because sometimes it didn't draw anything or actually pushed way too hard on the brush.

| − | I think this elective was very interesting, i learned to work with the 3D printer. And i think i might use the plotter in the next year for a project!
