CNC Table @ ProtoSpace

project: 
GloveBox
Fablab Location: 
Waag Society

Cutting large pieces at ProtoSpace in Utrecht. Since there was a large format (approx. 250cm x 120cm) CNC table router available we were able to cut the larger pieces out of wood (OSB: oriented strand board), which simplified the assembly and lowered the cost.

In addition to cutting out the shapes, we also milled partial-depth grooves to position the acrylic pieces and to hold them in place.

Full-scale Mock-up

project: 
GloveBox
Fablab Location: 
Waag Society

We made a partial, full-scale mockup of the design to make sure our assumptions about scale were in fact correct, and to make final adjustments to the dimensions.

Proof of concept.

GloveBox

GloveBox
The VASTAL Virginarium is a six person Glove Box artistically designed by Adam Zaretsky and Mason Juday. The glove box is being made using the WAAG Society¹s FabLab laser cutting and rapid prototyping machinery. It is designed to provide a sterile field for Bioart Laboratories. But it is also designed for public performances, which revolve around cultural interpretive issues of purity, sterility and cleanliness.
