For BMEG 409, I designed and laser cut a personalized phone stand in Onshape. The project had two parts, an upright piece and a horizontal base, that slide together to hold a phone. I shaped the upright part into the Greek letters for Lambda Chi Alpha, my fraternity here at Bucknell, and paired it with a triangle base that matches our badge shape.
Along the way I practiced core CAD skills like sketching, extruding, filleting, and mirroring, and had to think through how the tabs and slots would actually fit together once cut. It was a cool way to combine something personal with real fabrication experience, from modeling in Onshape all the way to using the laser cutter in the Mooney Lab.
The assignment was to make an upright part and horizontal part. This is obviously the upright part that designed after the Lambda Chi Alpha letters, this project was assigned only 2 days after bid day, so I thought it was perfect.
This horizontal peice is a delta that I designed to represent the Delta chapter of the fraternity that Bucknell has.
