Collaborative Crafting: 3D Modeling, Printing, and Crocheting

3D Modeling (Levi), 3D Printing (Ryan), Crocheting (Bronwyn) This past week, myself, Ryan, and Bronwyn all came together to collaborate and make something using our individual resident expertises. Because mine and Ryan’s were so different from Bronwyn’s, we had to get creative when deciding what to do. After some discussion, we decided that I wouldContinue reading “Collaborative Crafting: 3D Modeling, Printing, and Crocheting”

Comparing 3D Design Techniques: Insights from Mick Coulter

Mick Coulter One of the best things you can do to get better at something is to take inspiration from someone better than you. It allows you to want to try new things and helps you push yourself to new heights. The person I will be comparing my work to today is Mick Coulter, whoContinue reading “Comparing 3D Design Techniques: Insights from Mick Coulter”

Step-by-Step Guide: Using a Caliper for Precise Measurements

Modeling to Scale In order to model something to scale, you first need the right tools to do so. For larger objects, things like tape measures and rulers work fine. But when trying to measure something smaller and more precise, a tool called a caliper works best. In this tutorial, I will show you howContinue reading “Step-by-Step Guide: Using a Caliper for Precise Measurements”

Design in Fusion

Step one: Find Inspiration Step two: Start Modeling – Sketch Step three: First Extrusions – 3D Step 3.5: Slightly more detail Step four: Second sketch Step five: Second Extrusions – 3D Step six: New idea. Step 6.5: Connecting them Note: Why I do this now Step seven: Last components Step eight: Final touches

Autodesk Fusion Resource

This is a YouTube channel called “The Fusion Essentials.” It has a variety of different videos explaining tools, updates, workspaces, and processes with easy-to-understand explanations and examples (that you can easily follow). I find this to be a great resource to explore when I’m not sure how to best use or do something when modeling.Continue reading “Autodesk Fusion Resource”
