Cad + Drawings

to scale drawing prints

Created full scale models in fusion. Placed cello and bow model to test fit. Printed out fusion models to test scale, and used renders to explore differences between unstained and stained ashwood

Prep / First cuts

Purchased ash wood. Cut out and glued fusion drawing on to wood to act as a template. Used bandsaw to make first major cut, and used a rub joint to get first section of plank together. And took a few breaks :3

Joining + sanding

Used Domino joiner, then held sturdy with clamps and tape to account for awkward angles. Sanded to remove paper and prep for stain. lastly routed pieces using hand and table router.

Assembly + staining

Used tape to test out positions of stand. After measuring angles of stand, made a two angle cut on the chop saw for the stands supports. Using a jig, created angled cuts for screws to be placed with a modified drill bit. lastly sanded the stand one last time before staining
