I used Inckscape, wrote my name and created a sticker. Now the sticker is on my laptop. You can find the picture lower on the page.
Christmas Tree
My next project was learning to use the Epiloc laser. I made two object. At first I made a chain, which was an easy project to learn to use the laser. My next project was building a christmas tree using press fit. On the picture, below the tree, you can see the individual pices that make the christmas tree.
Puffin tie
On 14. april 2011 we helt a Puffin day in Vestmannaeyjar. We where supose to make a puffin souvenir. I desited to make a puffin tie, you can find picure of the tie belowe. I used inkcscape in this project. I took five picures of puffins and used the tool trace bitmark in inkscape to get the outlines from the puffins. Then I took used the Epiloc laser and I printed the picures on special films. The laser made litle holes in the films and made the puffins. After that i stretched the films over my white tie and carefully stroke dress ink over it. The ink ran in the holes and printed the puffins in the tie. I used a little bit to much ink and it got a little messy. I don't afford another tie so if you have money donate now!
Guitar holder
For my final project I desited to use all I've learn in press fit and make a guitar holder. I designed the stand in inkscape. Picures are belowe.

Projects
PicoCricket
My first project this semester was learning how to use Pico Cricket. Pico Cricket is a tiny computer that can light up, spin things and play music. The computer has four ports to connect the sensors to. At first I learned how to turn on the light with different functions. I tried an on and off swich, light sensor and noise sensor. After alot of experiments whit all kind of light, sound and motors. I made up the perfect christmas gift for all nerds in the world. In one of the ports I put a red light. In the second port I put light sensor to turn of the motor which was in the third port. In the last hole I put an on and off swich to turn on the motor. On the motor I put christmas decoration and litle bells to make a sound. On top of that I used the Pico Cricket program and I played the famous christmas song Jingle Bells on piano. You can find a great picure of the christmas machine below
