Heres a preview of a cnc router cut plywood stool we are working on. Using laser cut hinge lines on the curved corners added strength the the external corners aswell as reducing weight slightly.
Also by drawing the hinge lines in a zig zag pattern, machining time on the laser was reduced significantly.
Currently we are using .mdf for the prototype although once we have finished making some minor changes and are happy with the final design we will be sure to keep you guys posted on more visual appealing version.
