Experiment 1
-Heating
- Vacuum Forming thin acrylic to learn the properties of heating acrylic
- Push forming-Heat up acrylic and then try to push a shape through to get a smooth curve
- Use this knowledge to heat bend acrylic around an object to get an outline of the form
Experiment 2
-Laser Cutting/Etching
- Try variation of shapes and test the structural properties of the acrylic to see how thing of form are possible
- Etch different images into acrylic and see if it is possible to etch multiple layers
Experiment 3
-Finishing
- Try multiples textures including smooth, rough, and mirror
- Try different spray or paint on paints to see which works best
