To design and make a speaker box using laser cutting techniques and electronically wiring and soldering the components of the speakers.
Research
Summary: After researching many speaker designs and speaker boxes, I couldn't decide what to make my speakers like. I started off doing a carry able speaker box like the top right picture but modified. I decided I didn't like that and changed my design to an iphone. The iphone would be made from the provided acrylic with the speakers in the back and the phone sitting where the screen would be. After I again decided I didn't like that, I finally changed my design to the surfboard with the speakers sitting towards the nose and tail of the board.

Evaluation
Although I could not finish my design as the laser cutter was broken I am happy with how the surfboard shape turned out. Some things that I could improve on include spending more time on the design and creating more and different prototypes to determine how I could do the design the best and make it the most effective. If I spent more time on the design I could have fine tuned some of the minor details and added more details to make it look more like a surfboard.
