OSE Apprenticeship Wall Module Build Instructions
Build detail doc - [1]. Doc has link to the design in FreeCAD if you wnt to take a look in more detail.
- Video the build from setup to finish in a time lapse set for 5 second interval, to document full time of build for collaborative learning about the Extreme Manufacturing process. Don't worry about going slow or messing up. In fact, we encourage you to mess up and learn, and document so we can all learn about the reality of learning. To do the time lapse, please take numerous clips, and ideally document the work scene as you are setting up. This is because a lot of time can go into this - and it is all the 'edge times' of events around the actual build that contribute to the overall build process. This information is useful to capture, so that we truly understand the ergonomics and economics of any build. This is particularly important when we are trying to redesign civilization for efficient operation.
- If mulitple clips - combined them and upload to a video sharing site. Paste the link on your Log.
- Take the quality control points - document with pictures. Aim for +/- 1/8" accuracy on cut lengths.
- Share pictures using a link from a picture sharing site - past the link at your Log.
- Let Marcin know that you are done by email whenever you are done. According to Time Lapse Calculator - a clip with 5 second interval would be 30 seconds long for a 1 hour duration.
This is the wall module that we will use to build a structure during the 'on-site interview' and swarm build with all the other applicants. OSE will reimburse you for your materials.
You can do it all with nails, hammer, and hand saw, but it will take longer than using screws and a screw gun, or using a nail gun, or a circular saw. You can purchase or borrow a drill or nail gun, but OSE will not reimburse you for that. You will be required to have a small core tool set of your own during the apprenticeship. These tools include those which we use most often: a Dewalt cordless drill and 6.5" cordless saw, and some other tools - so if you buy the specific Dewalt tools, they are admissible for use during the Apprenticeship. The idea is that everyone uses the same tools for simplicity (logistics and uniformity). As time goes on, we will develop and produce our own tools, in which case purchasing tools will not be necessary. The specific tools OSE uses are:
