PROJECT 2: Reverse Engineered Object (Week 1: SELECT)

Image
Project Due:  November 6, 11:59 pm Week 1 //  Selection Due: Oct 2 3, 11:59 p m Assignment Description: We are going to reverse engineer an existing object via 3D modeling. In other words, we will each be creating a Rhino model of an existing object. Your first task: select an object that is is complex or made from multiple parts. “mechanical’ objects are excellent for the reason that they are inherently made up of several components that make up the assembly. For example: An ipod or Mp3 players, which have no moving parts are not the best choices. CD players, sink faucets, door hinges, clock mechanisms, and ski bindings are better because they contain moving parts that interact with each other.   Assignment Requirements: 1.) Select THREE objects (you will be choosing one, it is better to have several options in the beginning) ***Selection Guidelines: a.) Device must be "dissectible". You have to be able to take it apart. b.) Both external and internal parts must ...

WEEK 2 ASSIGNMENT: Drawing in 2D

Assignment:  Exercise:  Using this reference image , draw these shapes in Rhino. Remember to keep the 'project' and 'osnap' features on. Use the 'text' command to note the various ways of approaching one shape, create iterations (copies) of each piece of work as you get stuck and start again, or if you find multiple ways to do the same thing.  Journal:  As always, take screenshots of work throughout, and let us know in your blog posts what you learned / what you found challenging. Due: Email link to your posts by 8am Monday Sept 26.

WEEK 11 ASSIGNMENT: Design for 3D Printing // Vessels

Image
A ssignment:  Design an interpreted vessel for 3D Print Assigned:  November 14 Due:  November 21 Origami drippers  sold at Rogue Wave Coffee , Edmonton. Description: As your first 3D printing exercise, your vessels may be simple. Think of surface textures, patterns or even hollow wireframe vessels.  Your vessel must range within the sizes of minimum  5 cm tall x 4 cm wide, or maximum 10 cm tall x 8 cm wide Using commands like loft, twist, revolve, rail, sweep 1 or 2, bend, stretch, shell etc. design a few iterations of your vessel until you are happy with what you think will be a successful PLA filament print.  Consider designing for 3D printing -  Will your object cantilevers be printable? Does your object need structural supports? Will your object textures print with PLA Challenge: Will your vessel be able hold liquid or physical weight (objects such as pens?)  If you would like to challenge the assignment, you may model something of intere...
