This is the Drexel Engineering 103 blog for group 068-06. The goal of this lab is to create a LED fixture that can be implemented into a dementia ward at St. Francis Country House to help the health of the patients there. We are working with Group 068-05 to achieve this goal of creating a working prototype. Our group is primarily focusing on the manufacturing of the physical light fixture while the other group is working on programming the LEDs to simulate daylight.

Cutting the Sheet Metal

Unfortunately, due to scheduling conflicts and dimensional problems with our sheet metal and the shop tools at the Hess Shop, our team was not able to cut the sheet metal on time. In order to cut our sheet metal, we contacted the Computer Components Corporation, located in Philadelphia. The person in charge of the CNC machine, Frank Cettina, has approved of our CAD drawings and agreed to let us use the CNC machine this Thursday, 5/9/13, at no cost!

Additionally, this is the file that we'll be cutting off of.
