~~REVEAL~~
Asgard Stool
The Asgard stool was created for initially for the 2017 Brisbane Makerfest where 30 participants built the stool in 45 minutes. The stools were pre-cut, a demo cutting was shown. The stools have been re-purposed to serve as the take-away for The Edge CNC inductions.

The 3D model can be viewed, interacted with here.
To customise the material thickness, dimensions and tolerances you can change the parameters of the original design in Fusion360..
Changing Parameters
Before playing with the parameters remember;
- that they can (and will) interact in strange ways.
- Undo early and often.
- adjusting material thickness can affect everything - after changing, close the paramater window to check the effect.
Open the model, then go to the parameters menu.
The parameters you will can change are favourites at the the top of the list.
