SHOW your instructor, and SCREENSHOT it to the HANDIN folder

PROBLEM 3: CREATE AN AIRPLANE

  1. FIND an existing AIRPLANE design you want to emulate (NOT “made up” by you)
    • Ideally you need a TOP, SIDE, and FRONT view
    • My favourite airplanes:
  2. DOWNLOAD an image of the AIRPLANE you have chosen
    • INSERT it as a “CANVAS” and you can sculpt to fit, then make the canvas invisible
  3. BEGIN!
  4. STUCK?

 

SHOW your instructor ON SCREEN, and SCREENSHOT a RENDERING to the HANDIN folder

 

 


FUSION CHALLENGE: GET CREATIVE!

 

If you are not here by October 1st/March 1st, you’re going to run out of time

This Project must be completed THIS TERM;
Don’t waste your time

Don’t waste OTHER PEOPLE’S time;
THEY NEED TO COMPLETE THEIR PROJECT TOO

READ THROUGH THE MARKS SHEET

>>> NO WEAPONS <<<

 

THE PROJECT MUST:

    1. Be a MECHANISM (a system of parts working together as a Simple Machine)
      • A: Each shape has extra techniques, COMPOUND SIMPLE MACHINE (machine moves another machine), does not come apart.
      • B: Each shape as extra techniques, TWO simple machines, does not come apart
      • C+: Each shape has extra techniques, simple machine, does not come apart
      • C: Basic geomteric shapes, simple machine, does not come apart
      • !!MOVING PARTS MUST HAVE ABOUT 1.5mm CLEARANCE!!
    2. Be a MECHANISM that IS a SIMPLE MACHINE << click to know what a Simple Machine is
    3. Be a Simple Machine 
    4. Still be a Simple Machine 
    5. Be ASSEMBLED from 6 or more distinct, assemblable parts
      • Single Part” example: A bicycle wheel:
        • Rim (revolve)
        • Hub (revolve, hole, pattern)
        • Spokes (sweep, thread, solid)
        • Tire (revolve, solid, pattern)
        • Valve stem (revolve, thread)
      • WHEN 3D PRINTED, IT MUST STAY TOGETHER!
    6. Use at least FOUR of these:
      • Solid modeled parts
      • Holes
      • Shells
      • Ribs
      • Revolved parts
      • Patterns
      • Lofted parts
      • Swept parts
      • Sheet Metal
      • Sculpted

10% BONUS: do FEA on TWO components of your project
