After our first course, [löten und leuchten](/project/löten-leuchten),
the next idea was to create a format for the laser cutter. We were targeting older kids this time, from the year 9 on up.
We looked up on 3Axis.co for inspiration and it seemed important to both of us that we would be able to create something large and useful. So a groupwork project seemed ideal and we settled on birdhouses pretty quickly.

At the space, we have a pretty large and powerful Xtool S1, which is capable of cutting up to 10mm plywood.
But a birdhouse, with all its sides, ends up using quite a bit of material, sowe spent quite a bit of prep time optimizing the base design so one hous can be made using only 3 A3 sheets of plywood.
We invented a joint memory game, to incentivize thinking about all the larger possibilities of the laser cutter. During their own process, the kids found out for themselves the pros and cons of modular or reversible design and were designing their own birdhouses entirely in Tinkercad and Xtool Creative Space.

We also had a lot of fun with the laser cutter, and the kids were able to create their own designs and engravings.

#TODO Images
We laid out the course for 3 days again, but slightly underestimated the time necessary for larger cuts end engravings.
We were unable to finish the birdhouses in time on day 3, with each only needing less than an hour or so for waterproofing and finishing touches.
Next time, we would make this a 4 day course :)
Despite not completely finishing, the feedback was good again and apparently provided a solid entryway into 2D Sheet manufacturing and Lasercutting.
A big shoutout also goes out to our new favourite site, [Boxes.py](https://boxes.hackerspace-bamberg.de) for providing a ton of amazing parametric files that gave great easy inspiration especially in jointing options for the kids.
