Jordan_Experiment 3_Cork





































My final experiment with cork was the use of cnc technology to make a form. First I gluded and clamped the remaining sheets of cork I had used in previous experiments with gorilla glue. I then removed the grips and used the band saw to remove the mdf from the cork block and trim excess cork to make a square. Next, I measured the block and sketched a bowl-like design in solid works (with the help of Tom King..yea Tom King did everything in solid works). From there, the cnc machine milled the part. Next, I used the scroll saw to remove the cork that I did not need. The final steps involved the oscillating sander and sand paper to refine the piece.
