OBJECT: PROGRESS

 This week I broke my object and started to measure the big pieces and outter. 










My plan for next week, I will dig into the inner part.

REVERSE ENGINEERED OBJECT - Final

Image
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This project took me a very long time to finish. It has many components that need to be measured, but luckily, we learned most methods in class, so it is not too hard.  The assemble took me much longer time than I expected, there are a few issues:  1) Some parts are not quite fit to each other. Even though in the drawing process, I tried my best to measure, errors still exist. Sometimes I felt it is not that important, the final outcome was just a concept, and it was fine to be not accurate. It turned out to be a big problem I needed to fix in the last step.  2)I had problems in the materials part, some materials look pure black in my components. I know some errors happen, but I don't know why. 3) The worst part, is the handle. It was not fit the shapes and screws at all. I was in despair, I spent a few hours to search a solution online, but I couldn't solve it. ...

REVERSE ENGINEERED OBJECT: PROGRESS II

  This is my process so far. I made most big parts of the outer shell, and now I am moving to more details and small parts. I think if I have more time, I will be able to finish most parts of the clock.  However, I have not successfully made screws yet. I stuck in the little triangle part for screws. Drawings More pieces

3D-PRINTABLE CHESS SET

Image
I have a previous design of a butterfly, and I want to continue to develop it to be 3D project. Due to my super tight schedule, I can only finish 3D printing for two of them (that would be the Queen and the Pawn). I am continuing my project this week. If I have more materials, I will print the colours as the render.  Problems:  I have a problem closing all the surfaces,  it always happens. It might affect the printing process. Next time I need to carefully cut solid.  And the 3D print cost longer than I thought. But I went to the studio today, and the technician gave me more advice and training, I will know the printing time via Prusa beforehand.  However, 3D printing is not so very successful. There are some holes and disconnected parts, and the support materials are hard to take off.  ------------------------------------ This week, I finally made all 6 cheers.
