Desk space can every limited in college dorms, so I made a way to organize stationary in an aesthetically pleasing way. I also wanted more experience with the Crawlbot since we discussed how to use it in my CNC Robotics class. This desk organizer is made up of 4 hexagon-shaped containers, which can either be stacked to save desk space or spread out for design-purposes. Each container is deep enough to hold stationary (paper clips, thumb tacks, binder clips, etc.) and still be able to stack evenly on top of each other. Making this project allowed me to have more practice designing in Fusion 360 and using the Crawlbot, and it's something that I will be using after the Hackathon.

I designed the shape of the containers on Fusion 360 and mapped out the manufacturing process for the Crawlbot. After testing the cuts out on Fusion 360, I downloaded it as G-code and sent it over to the Crawlbot. I nailed down a piece of MDF board to make the containers with and then told the Crawlbot to cut out the design. I used a chisel and hammer to get each piece out. Because Crawlbots can't cut on the underside of wood, I had to use a drill press to cut the small holes in the bottom. This would ensure that the pegs on the top of each container would be able to fit into the small holes above it and stay in place. I then spray-painted the project to make it look more visually appealing and professional.
