  1. Castle:  Since I missed two weeks of class, that time I didn't have any logic to build a castle😿.  2.  Surface Design Study  (Color) :  At that time, I barely knew how to use the Hatch and control the curves in Rhino😓. 3. Surface Design Study ( Laser Cut Sample ) Thanks to Arica, she helped me to print a few samples to test the better colours and shapes👯 4. Reverse Engineered Object My biggest project ever 🙊 it takes me a few weeks to work on. I wanted to choose an object that challenges me and looks good in my portfolio, but I also need to make sure I can finish it.  4.5 The Ring👏 5. 3D Printed Chess Set 💪 Due to the super tight schedule during the final time, I have not finished the set. But I made two examples and they are now in 3D printing. So it is very doable for me to draw and print them all.

I have a previous design of a butterfly, and I want to continue to develop it to be 3D project. Due to my super tight schedule, I can only finish 3D printing for two of them (that would be the Queen and the Pawn). I am continuing my project this week. If I have more materials, I will print the colours as the render.  Problems:  I have a problem closing all the surfaces,  it always happens. It might affect the printing process. Next time I need to carefully cut solid.  And the 3D print cost longer than I thought. But I went to the studio today, and the technician gave me more advice and training, I will know the printing time via Prusa beforehand.  However, 3D printing is not so very successful. There are some holes and disconnected parts, and the support materials are hard to take off.  ------------------------------------ This week, I finally made all 6 cheers.
