CONSTRUCTION OF TEMPLATE
The construction of the template consisted of laser cutting the pieces to create a stack of the object. This was achieved where 123D Make's exported plans were imported into Adobe Illustrator and run through the laser printer. With the desire to create an object that was structurally stable but also a material to visually symbolised the natural aspect of the human body, wood; specifically 3mm Plywood was chosen as the construction material.
After laser cutting the pieces of the object, it was then able to glued and pieced together, forming a 3D template / shell of my hand. The final sizing of the hand template measures: 260mm x 160mm x 70mm
