The aluminum model assignment consist on thinking about three variations and drawing them in a CAD software. At the end, making a real one of those out of an aluminum sheet. The technique I used consist of making a three-dimensional digital model, unroll it into different planar surfaces, print the outlines and stick them into the final material and cut it. The process of shaping aluminum into cone trunks was obtained through rotating the foil over some cylindrical object like spray cans, simplifying the task and achieve rounded surfaces. Each separated surface had little teeth in the ends, improving connections between separated pieces and the final shape.
