Fish Tank Modelling

Lisa and I went to the workshop and I used Corel to draw the pieces that needed to be cut. This consisted of six pieces;  the top, the base and the two sides, the front and the back. It was a new experience using the laser cutter and I was pleasantly surprised at the result.

After peeling of the protective paper layer, we were at the point of glueing the pieces together. The workshop guys helped us with the process in finding the right glue and using the seringe to use the glue in the corners where two pieces adjoin. The glue that was used  was Dichlororethane I think..
He explained it as a heating action that occurs to join the pieces together. 

The result was good, no cloudiness on the acrylic and it was very sterdy and secure. The top was left off so that the inner components could be put in the tank.
