Week 1

Overview:

In week 1 of TE 303, we learned how to use Autodesk Fusion 360 in order to create 3D models of our designs. We were assigned two different models to create.

Assignment 1:

I started assignment 1 by creating a rough outline of the base of the object, then constrained it to follow the actual shape of the object.

After finishing this sketch, I extruded it 15.00 mm to create the bottom part of the shape

I then created another sketch on the side of the newly extruded object to create the rest of the shape

After this, I extruded out the rest of the shape while maintaining part of the hole that had not already been filled in

After this step, I fixed the hole in the side of the object so that there would be a full hole instead of a partially filled hole

The last step I did was fillet the sharp edge between the lower and higher parts of the object

Assignment 2:

I started assignment 2 with a basic sketch of the base with the correct dimensions

After creating the basic sketch, I extruded each section to its appropriate height (12.00 mm for the side boxes and 40.00 mm for the middlebox)

After the first extrusions, I created a sketch on the top of one of the side boxes for the holes that go through them, after I created the sketch, I extruded out the holes on one side and mirrored the extrusion on the other side of the object

After creating these holes, I filleted the edges of the side pieces to specification

I then created a sketch on the side of the middlebox to extrude the semi-circle at the top of the middlebox

I then created a sketch for the middlebox that needed to be cut out and extruded it to get rid of the material, thus finishing the assignment
