Planning for angled panel joints
- [Instructor] In the last video, we talked about a basic overview of going from our two dimensional Voronoi cell pattern, into something that could be three dimensional, actually fabricated out of physical material. In this video, I'd like to go a little bit more in depth with some of that thought process and thinking through how we're going to actually tackle fabricating this. We have our extrusion where we left off from the last video. So I'm going to double click perspective and just zoom in a little bit here. Again, the real challenge with this form is these irregular angled joints. There's almost no 90 degree angles, so this would be actually pretty challenging to fabricate in a way where it's going to come together and look like it does on screen here. So let's think through how we would actually tackle making this thing. And there's some clues here that we can get in each of these individual extrusions. So I'm just going to click on an extrusion here and let's turn on the…
