The theme will still be New Haven’s Unique Needs, and we’ll use the SeeClickFix API to build solutions.

 

Challenge:

Form teams to address one of New Haven’s Unique Needs in one of three ways:

Elisa Shares Her Laser Cutter Work

Elisa talks about her work to use the laser to cut intricate paper designs and create a fold-able wood book cover.

Submitted by Robert Narracci on

One has to do that by slowly opening a bigger and bigger aperture in the plastic bag the bowl is stored in. At first it literally sweats and then slows down over time. Near the end of drying I had to mitigate some splitting with butterfly keys (a.k.a. bow ties or dutchmen) and then do some filling with cyanoacrylate glue (crazy glue or zap-a-gap) mixed with sawdust.
