The parts in the tire assembly were created using a series of revolved extrusions and cuts. The rim pattern was left for the students to create on their own. The small hub cap inserted in the center where a car manufacturers logo usually goes was embossed with our initials instead

The predator drone project was one of the more in-depth assignments we were given. All parts were created from scratch except for the missiles themselves which were provided. The body of the drone was made by importing sets of data points to create curves that formed a frame of the body. The Lofted Boss/Base tool then created the complex shape along the imported curves. The wings were created using the Clark YS airfoil shape by also importing those data points and using the Loft tool.
