There is never a good time for a pandemic, and all of the right decisions were made. However, some projects I was passionate about were left uncompleted. I had spent a lot of time on this papercraft project specifically. I was fortunate to have been able to use the laser cutter in our final class before school shutdown. Although I did not get everything printed, I was happy that I would be able to at least finish the basic structure. I was, however, quite wrong. In creating the body of my guitar, I created two separate halves to act as sort of a lid and container. I added structural support as I discovered it needed in my prototype.

In order to unfold the top half in Rhino, I flipped it so I could have it on the same plane as the other body. Due to an oversight on my part, I did not flip it back after unfolding it. Alongside that, I had somehow cut tabs off e...

It was an easy decision for me to choose this for my papercraft project. I knew it would be challenging, but no other ideas came close to competing with this one. I had to do it. In the end, I was quite pleased with how my model in Rhino turned out. However, the papercraft realm was foreign territory for me. I was not sure what to expect or how it would go. The main focus of my first prototype was to test the strucutal integrity. This played a big part in deciding...
