International Chess Board Design:

This is the design for the International Chess Board that I made during Interim Week. This Chess Board has all the names of the first eight countries/places to start to play chess, and also has the names of each country in their most common language. I came up with this idea because chess is a very popular game all around the world and I knew I could make a cool design for the chess board. This design took about 2 hours to make, and the chess board took 30 minutes to cut with a lazer cutter. The board ended up being 12-12 inches.

My international chess board design. Created using Corel Draw.

International Chess Board

For the Maker-space interim I am going to make a chess board with the names of all the first countries to start playing chess engraved in the white squares. To make this I will use the template I previously made to engrave a piece of wood for the board, then I’ll 3D print the chess pieces to complete the set.

Boomerang

Boomerangs were originally used by Australian aborigines. I would like to make some kind of boomerang similar to those sold now. This website has the kind of boomerang that I would like to make. I plan to make the boomerang by wood.

I’m going to make an outline of the image, trace it on the computer, and once I have the outline made I will scale it so that I know how big I want it to be. Then, I will cut it multiple times so that I can glue it together with multiple layers so that it will fly better.

Kunai Knife

A kunai Knife was originally made as a garden tool for the Japanese, but wasn’t very sharp. The Kunai later developed into a weapon of battle, that was sharpened and used for combat. I want to make a Kunai Knife to practice my knife making skills. 

Plant Cell Pinball Machine

The purpose of my project is to make a Plant Cell Pinball Machine. The project has been started for a science project. This is version two of the pinball machine.

Verizon one of the pinball machine.

Rings

For my ring I’m going to put a picture of the earth and put glass or resin bubble over it.

Rings project proposal

For my ring I am going to put a picture of the city I was born in in the ring.

Maker Space interim

I will create a speaker and play Global music through it. I will research the history for every region of music I play. Later, If I have time, I will attempt to create some things from the anarchaist notebook, and incorporate global issues such as terrorism into the creation.
