+ | |||
+ | The ADA Museum at UCSB has acquired two models created by architect Kendrick Kellogg. We are collaborating with them to create 3D printed copies of the models. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The two models we are helping with are of the Hoshino Wedding Chapel in Japan (pictured on the left) and the Doolittle House in Joshua Tree, California (pictured on the right). | ||

In the Summer of 2022, the Innovation Workshop acquired a CrystalMark abrasion etcher secondhand from a dentist downtown. Over the next 1.5 year, the Workshop Wizards have made iterative modifications and additions to the tool. These include mounting the handheld tool to a Sherline CNC Z-Axis, creating a vacuum stage to hold wafers and glass slides, replacing the manual food pedal with relay controlled by g-code, and extensive feed and cut rate testing. | In the Summer of 2022, the Innovation Workshop acquired a CrystalMark abrasion etcher secondhand from a dentist downtown.

This is a truly one-of-a-kind tool capable of cutting arbitrary contours in brittle substrates such as silicon and glass much faster than traditional cleanroom techniques. (add pics and/or videos of tool cutting) | This is a truly one-of-a-kind tool capable of cutting arbitrary contours in brittle substrates such as silicon and glass much faster than traditional cleanroom techniques.
