“…With the use of augmented fabrication tools and digital manufacturing, it is possible for people to do the fabrication process themselves, assisted through digital fabrication means (Verlinden & Bekker, 2017;Mahapatra, Jensen, McQuaid, & Ashbrook, 2019;Yung, Li, & Ashbrook, 2018). In this way, the designer of the product can make small adjustments during this process.…”

Augmented fabrication is an upcoming technology which combines digital design with physical manufacturing. Since there is a lack of experimental data on the benefits and experiences of augmented fabrication, a pilot study was done with the Shape Origin, a spatially aware manual CNC cutter. The experiment consisted of engraving a set of boards with circular 2mm groove. As a pilot test, the co-authors participated in the experiment and engraved five boards each.We concluded that the quality and elapsed time improved significantly after repetition. As participants, we ended up with more confidence in operating the machine and growing more knowledgeable about the wood as a material during the engraving, resulting in cleaner cutting results with a flat learning curve.
