D6 Dice is an assignment in MET112 class. This assignment requires me to use Fusion 360 to CAD the 6 faces dice base on the technical draw. Below is a summary of what tools and features that I learned and used in this project.

Draw model 2D in Sketch mode. Draw lines and circles.

Use Sketch Dimension to align the circle sketches with the middle circle.

Create text on the path by using Text in Sketch mode.

Use the Rectangular Pattern to copy sketches and space them out in rows and columns. 

Use the Extrude to create a 3D cube base on the 2D sketch and create the cut in the 1-pip face of my name.

Use the Revolve to create Spheres which cut to the faces of the dice to create pips.

Modify the Dice edges by using the Chamfer.

Utilize Timeline to edit the sketches or modify changes.

In Fusion 360, I converted the D6 Dice CAD to a 3DPrint file.

I then used PrusaSlicer to convert the 3DPrint file to G-Code that was compatible with my 3D printer and also allowed me to easy to select the quality of the print; Better quality, smaller layer, slower in printing.

I printed three dice with different orientations: with my name on the top layer, bottom layer, and side.

I found that the best way to print the dice was to place my name on the side, as this allowed the words to be clearly readable.

In Fusion 360, open the Dice 6 CAD, then create New Drawing.

• File > New Drawing > From Design

Then place the Basic View with the setting: 

• Orientation: "Front"

• Style: "Visible Edges"

• Scale: 1:1

To add the sides view of the Dice, I used the Projected View feature.

• Select the Basic View 

• Move the mouse to the left, right, up, and down, it will automatically show exactly the view of each side.

• To add the bottom view of the Dice, I used the Projected View to create the next view of the 5 pips face.

Add one more Basic View:

• Orientation: "HOME"

• Style: "Shaded"

• Scale: 2:1
