Star Wars Monopoly (Glowforge) instructables Star Wars Monopoly (GlowForge) by MichaelMikkelson May the 4th be with you! Having recently invested in a GlowForge laser cutter, Almost all of my initial projects and pieces coming off the Glowforge were gifts for others. I cut some things on wood, engraved from slate, and even made an multi-level topographic map. However, I wanted to do something for myself. There were a ton of users on the GlowForge forums making Settlers of Catan boards, which is awesome. I decided to try something different, and create my own custom Monopoly board, but better yet, an original Star Wars Trilogy Monopoly board. This game will go into my personal collection. It is not for sale. Having recently played Monopoly for the first time in a long time, I thought that I could create pretty much everything needed for a custom Monopoly board with my GlowForge. it ended up being a much bigger project than just creating a custom board, as I also made the tokens, property cards, dice, money, community chest, chance cards, bankers tray, and custom box. My version of the game is based loosely off the Parker Brothers original trilogy Star Wars Monopoly edition, with many variations. "I am one with the Force, and the Force is with me..." *** I used a GlowForge laser cutter using .SVG files from Adobe Illustrator. The files I share in this thread are Illustrator .AI files, which would need to be re-saved as .SVG files to work on a GlowForge. The main materials I used: 2 x 1/4" x 12" x 20" Cherry Proofgrade Plywood (Game board) 2 x 1/8" x 12" x 20" Proofgrade Draftboard (Property Cards) Different Color Cardstock paper for the Money, chance, and community chest cards. Scrap proofgrade plywood for tokens, houses, and hotels. Acrylic paint for property cards and board spaces. Blank Dice Star Wars Monopoly (GlowForge): Page 1 Star Wars Monopoly (GlowForge): Page 2 Step 1: Board Design Doing a quick google search brought up a number of resources for helping getting started on a personalized version of Monopoly. Use the Hasbro My Monopoly website to create a custom board Plenty of Etsy sellers with custom boards Google it. I found a few sites with templates as well. Hobbylark Brad Frost Photoshop Template Seminopoly Illustrator Template I ended up redrawing the entire board, as I didn't find anything that was precise enough to use on my project. Since I knew that I was going to use the GlowForge to score the board grid on the wood, I wanted to ensure that all the lines were joined properly and the exact length. The GlowForge bed is limited to wood that is currently 12" x 20". Even though I have the pro model with pass through slot, I wanted a board the would fold up, so ended up making this in 2 halves. Knowing that the GlowForge would do a combination of cutting, engraving, and scoring, I kept each of these elements on their own layer in Illustrator, and used different colors for fill and stroke so the GlowForge webapp separates each of these into their own configurable instance. I have attached the board grid Illustrator files below. Feel free to use them as you see fit. None of the graphics or artwork is included in those files, just the layout and grid for you to use in your own Monopoly board.*** *** Since this is a Star Wars monopoly board, I used clip art and images I found through a google image search. I do not own the copyright to these images, and am using them for my own personal use. This instructable is here to show you my process in making this Monopoly board using a GlowForge, but cannot directly share any of the individual trademarked or images that were created by other artists. Add images to a new layer in Illustrator for whatever theme Monopoly board you are making.

I used the GlowForge to score the lettering into the tiles using the Kabel Monopoly font, and cut Instead of having houses and hotels, or cities and each tile out. I also scored the mortgage information spaceports, my properties each have custom into each tile individually on the back. The tiles were "houses" and "Hotels." For example, if you land on painted with acrylic paint in a similar color to the Dabobah, you get huts for houses, and the Dark side original game, which will match the spaces on the cave for the hotel. If you land on the Death Star, your game board.. The tiles were cut from medium draft houses are Storm Troopers, and you hotel is the board, and will be spray painted with a sealant at Tractor beam. On Jabba's Sail barge, it has servant some point. The masking tape that comes on droids, and the Sarlacc Pit. You get the jist.

I then used Illustrator each bill. I ended up printing the design of the to create the outlines that will be cut using the Monopoly money on thicker cardstock paper, versus GlowForge, and saved as an .SVG format. the thin paper the original money comes on. I did this because I had access to free colored paper, so it was The money comes in 20, $500 bills, 20, $100 bills, 30, an easy choice.

    Unlocking Radicalization: Correctional Officers, Risk Perception, and Ideological Extremism in Albertan Prisons by William James Schultz A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Sociology University of Alberta © William James Schultz, 2017 ii Abstract A wide range of sources have framed radicalization into violent extremism as a serious risk to prisons in Europe and North America. Some view prisons as a primary recruiting ground for groups like ISIS. I investigated whether this was accurate in Alberta by conducting semi- structured interviews with 43 correctional officers in three Alberta prisons. I asked three questions: 1. Do correctional officers observe what they perceive as radicalization among their inmate populations? 2. How do correctional officers perceive and govern the risks associated with ‘radical’ inmates? 3. What influence does an insider/outsider role play in shaping prison research? I found nothing to suggest active radical activity within my research sites, suggesting prison radicalization is largely an irrelevant threat in the Albertan Context. However, I also discovered that officers have (in many cases) unconsciously redefined the meaning of “radicalization,” and have applied the label onto inmates who are resistant to officer control, rather than members of ideologically violent radical groups. I explore this at length using Ulrich Beck’s Risk Society hypothesis. Finally, I discovered my status as a former correctional officer played a strong role in casting me as an “Insider/Outsider” researcher, something which deeply shaped my research experience and impacted the data I was able to gather. iii Preface This thesis is an original work by William Schultz.
