- Made it a point to try programming with windows as its mentioned in Brian's tutorial - Got lots of errors every step but figured it out slowly. - Installed softwares mentioned in Brian's tutorial
I liked this week as it forced me to not sit on laptop whole day designing and working but also do hands on work . I discussed with Yogesh ji my final project and how i plan to improvise it with time and use Shopbot before the given week so that i am able to figure out ideas to improve my final project. Nishtha made few designs which can be used for folding in group assignment as reference for all of us for our projects, so using 2 from that and designing 3-4 of mine i laser cut all of them and analysed which one go well easily for my Maker turban.
