Leg prototyping

Date: 23/01/2023

I devoted the afternoon to the development of legs for the primary body prototype.

Prior to designing them in Shapr3D, I conducted a proof-of-concept analysis using paper to evaluate the feasibility of my design concept.

I was satisfied that the idea of incorporating thick layers in the main body and supporting them with horizontal pillars would be effective, despite the material variance.

Subsequently, I utilized the remaining time to create a new insert for the legs, which would feature an interlocking mechanism for attachment to the primary body, as well as a hole for connecting each leg to a horizontal support.
