In this assignment, I'm tasked to apply all my past knowledge about onshape into 3d modelling this hand held whisk.
First, I started by importing my image/guidelines onto Onshape. After making sure my 2D sketch is in the middle I selected sketch, the front plane and made a straight line going through the canter of my first shape. Next, I use the dimension tool and re shape my sketch to 230mm.
First I started by selecting front plane and sketcking a straight line going horizantally through each intersection of my shape. Next, I find the centre of each line and creating a circle from one side to another.
I then repeated the same process 3 more times untill I get a rough outline of my hand held whisk.
Afterward, I selected all three of my circles and with the loft tool I am able to join all the 3 circles together making the shape of the hand held whisk.
Next, I switch my view to top and selected the center of my already sketched circles and created another layer of bigger circles around it This will then allow my to use loft again surrounding my hand held whisk in another layer of materials in the process.
In order to make the ring connecting the handle to the hand held whisk, I made another sketch and with the draw around the orange bit/handle. Next I used the extrude tool and by selecting solid, symmetrical and remove I am able to removed any material around the handle leaving only the ring.
Finally to make the rest of the handle I selected front plane and sketched around the handle this will allow me to use the add function in the extrude tool along with the symmetrical option to make the handle 3D.
To make the vents I sketch two rectangles on the front plane. I then use the extrude tool to remove the material leaving a rectangular gap. Afterward, to make the vents more rounded I used the fillet tool.
To make the button, first I have to hollow out the entire shape. This can be done by using the shell tool and setting it as 2mm thick. Afterward I used the eclipse tool in order to sketch out the button hole and the extrude tool to make a hole through my shape. Now to make the button, I utilized the offset tool and the extrude tool I am able to extrude the button to the offset surface.
To make the spinning bit of the hand held whisk I drew half of each shapes individually and with the revolve tool I am able to rotate the shape around its half way line..
Now to make the lower parts of the whisk I sketched the outline of half of the blender with the center line in the middle. Afterward, I used the revolve tool with a symmetrical 15 degree revolve. Finally, I used the circular pattern function and selecting my center line as the axis this will then give me 6 whisks.
