Week 3 - Journal
Ideation
Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What inspired you? (Please include images or links to sources of inspiration)
Title of Mea
This week we'll design pen holder to print in 3d printing, so I decided to use the organic pattern, and for inspiration I search about pen and pencil holder + 3D Printing organic pattern and found this picture.
Tool Chain
Which software/machines/materials did you use in the assignment? Why?
We use Fusion 360 software to design the model of Pen holder and export it as SLT files
We use Ultimate Cura Software to slicing the 3d design and export into G-code file.
We use prusa i3 mk3 for 3D printing.
Green PLA Filament.
Design/Preparation Process
Explain the design and/or preparation process of your assignment. How did you use the tool or software to design and/or prepare your assignment before fabrication/implementation?
open fusion 360
Draw cylinder 100 diameter 130 hight
use shell feature to shell the cylinder to 5mm.
make a sketch on XZ plane and draw a rectangle, end the sketch
Use Voronoi sketch generator add-in to make an organic pattern
Use Emposs feature to put the pattern on the cylinder.
Add appearance to the 3D model.
Export the STL file to open in Cura software .
9. Open Cura software
10. Open the STL file
11. prepare the model and slicing .
12. Export the G-code file.
Development/Implementation Process
Explain the development/implementation process of your assignment. How did you use the machine/tool to manufacture or implement the design of your assignment?
Before starting print I changed the filament, preheat the nosel, and choose in print remove the filament then choose to plug in a new filament.
put the SD card in the printer.
3D print settings are 0.2mm to layer height, 30% infill, no support, no adhesion, 10g, 1h10m,
choose the G-code file, and start printing.
Overcoming Challenges
What kinds of challenges or problems did you face while doing the assignment, tutorials, or exercises? How did you solve them? Did you ask for help from an instructor or peer? Please provide a link to the tutorial or article that you used to solve your problem (if any)
I had a problem sketching an organic pattern on fusion 360, so while the assignment was reviewed some students ask how to do it and the instructor told them to search in add-on for fusion, so I search YouTube and found a video explaining how to do it.

Final Project
How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?
Title of Media
I can use Voroni Skech Genrator add-on to make pattern in my final project, to make fabric wood.
WOW!
What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?
Design a Lego man in the lab, that was the coolest thing this week, have fun and learning something new is the best thing.
