Week #2 - Journal

Ideation

Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What were you inspired by?

This week assignment was designing a mobile mobile Holder by using Fusion 360 actually the assignment was very interesting I began to make to make brain storming by watching most of mobile stands designs on Pinterest I was inspired by the Multifunction designs I think it's more space saving so I choose this cool mobile stand that works as a pens holder in the same time .

Tool Chain

Which software/machines/materials did you use this week? Why?

software

I used Fusion 360 Software to the to draw 2D parts and assemble them


machine

I will use Laser cutter next week for cutting these parts


materials

MDF WOOD - 3 mm


Design Process

Explain the design process of your assignment. How did you use the tool/software to design and/or simulate your assignment?

First I tried to make a rapid prototype to my design then I used Fusion 360 to Design my model I drew the elephant and the other parts as 2D sketches then extrude them to .3 millimeter ,I used screw and nuts to assemble them together by using the dimensions of the T- slot , I extruded the file as a DXF

Finally I used laser works to prepare the file for laser cutting


Explain the design process of your assignment. How did you use the tool/software to design and/or simulate your assignment?

I tried to make free hand sketches to my design then making an initial prototype to make sure that the dimensions and shape all come together

Then I used Fusion 360 to Design my model I I tried to make it as a block then add features to it then making living hinges to make the wood be able to be bend


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?

We will use the laser cutter to cut our model to 2D parts then Assemble them


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?

As we are from different backgrounds so we help each other, hossam told me about something that I don't know in my final project and send me some resources to find out about smart conpostaing

I'm trying to help them as soon as possible the last week I sent them videos to watch about how to laser cut mobile stand or how to design A mobile stand on Fusion



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?

At the beginning I was having a misunderstand in the design process I thought that we will start designing from 2D to 3D then I stopped and returned to search more I found that I can draw a block of my design then add or features then I can modify add or remove something to my design



Final Project

How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?

I think i can use living hinges to make any round shape by wood I was willing to learn this technique to help me do more on my my final project I think it will be a helpful method to make anything I want



WOW!

What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?

I have made the preweek activity it was very interesting

I have finished the catapult assignment

I have learned that we can make more things than we think from 2d laser cutting

Weekly Digest [OPTIONAL]

Tell us about any other cool things that you've made this week: Pre-activity, examples, exercises, or any mini-projects.

I I made this pre week assignment it was very enjoyable and helpful I wasn't imagine that I will make out of this something good


Assignment Design Files


Unfortunately there was a problem with the exported file it wasn’t opened in laser works
