For the final, I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to do, but for now I think I want to redesign a compact RF spectrum analyzer. These are a few I’ve used and I own the center one, and I want to combine some aspects of each of them, while adding in my own features.…… Continue reading Week 12: Final Proposal

Week 10 – Surface Modeling
UnfortunatelyI am currently having issues getting my version of Fusion to work. It’s saying my subscription is expired — which I then proceeded to renew (successfully) Although, whenever I open / reopen / sign out / sign back in to my Fusion account in the software, it still says expired and is acting as a…… Continue reading Week 10 – Surface Modeling
Week 9 – Generative Design
I tried to follow one of the tutorials from the slides — however, I received a ‘failed’ notification when trying to generate the designs. I also tried to follow the example from the class video that the guest was going through, but I still had a failed notification…
WK 8 – Sculpting
I chose to sculpt an aluminum can– was having a bit of trouble making the top with the pull tab and opening, I have the drawing but couldn’t seem to extrude correctly… will revisit. https://videopress.com/v/qRFK7Llx?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&autoPlay=true&controls=false&loop=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true
WK 6 – Midterm Progress (cont’d)
Did a couple more scribbles before moving over to Fusion to draw up the parts: The pen will be secured in the center, inserted into the top two parallel rods that will act as a rail system for the pen holder to move back and forth, which will be controlled with a motor and a…… Continue reading WK 6 – Midterm Progress (cont’d)
WK 5 – Midterm Progress
Planning on designing and possibly 3D printing a test model of the new version of the pen carriage for my thesis / drawing machine. Some aspects I will include: Adjustable pen mount (similar to the holder on a Cricut or Cameo, see below) A rail system that the pen mount can move along A motor…… Continue reading WK 5 – Midterm Progress
WK 4 – More Modeling + Sweep
For this exercise I worked off the reference photos for the Ikea watering can — I initially started by drawing circles to extrude upwards, but then changed my mind and drew a cross section of half of the watering can then revolved it to make it hollow inside. Then I added another sketch to the…… Continue reading WK 4 – More Modeling + Sweep
WK 3 – More Modeling
For this modeling exercise we worked off these reference images of an Ikea plant stand: At first I started off by drawing from the top view and revolving that into a circle pattern to make the three plates, then extruding from there. However, when I started to think about adding any details like fillets and…… Continue reading WK 3 – More Modeling
WK 2 – Modeling
The first two modeling assignments were pretty easy to go through, with the third being the most challenging. It’s trickier without any measurements, so I imported the reference image as a canvas to sketch on top of it and use the different angles pictured in the diagram to get rough measurements. Side note, I wish…… Continue reading WK 2 – Modeling
