Week #3 - Journal
Ideation
Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What were you inspired by?
The idea was to create pen and pencil holder, I love circles so I will try to make some in my design ;)
Tool Chain
Which software/machines/materials did you use this week? Why?
To create my design I use fusion 360.
I also used prusa slicer to slice my 3D model and convert it into GCode to be printed
Design Process
Explain the design process of your assignment. How did you use the tool/software to design and/or simulate your assignment?
At first I start to drawed my idea, then i created some circles in the middle of my design, by using circular pattern I repat those circles in my design to come up with this at the end.
kindly find the STL and G.code files into assets folder.
Fabrication/Implementation Process
Explain the fabrication/implementation process of your assignment. How did you use the machine/tool to manufacture or implement the design of your assignment?
Unfortunately I passed my FabLab visit so I wasn't have time to print my design but i helped my friend in the process to print his, it was very simple to use the 3D printer especially with the guide manual.
Community of Learning
Did you ask for feedback? What are the ideas that others have contributed or suggested? What was someone else’s idea that you built upon? How did you help your peers? How did your peers help you?
I did help my friend to convert his model to STL, easily right click on the body and save As STL.
Overcoming Challenges
When you got stuck, what/who did you turn to? At what point did you have to pause to research or learn more before moving on? What are some mistakes, pitfalls, or challenges that others can avoid if they were doing this project?
I stucked while trying to creat the circular pattern the program was not able to do it but i relize that i choose the circular pattern type as faces not bodeis.
To slove it just change type : faces to bodies .
Final Project
How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?
I can now easily convert my project idea into a 3D model just like my beautiful pen holder. :D
WOW!
What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?
I learned how to use Fillet to make my product edges more softer.
