Jasmine's 3D Object Design Blog

  The final touches for the reversed engineering project have now been officially completed. I tried my very best to replicate my model to the original design and measurements as much as possible, and I am very happy with the final result. This project was extremely time consuming and with the amount of issues that I had to deal with along the way, I am just glad to move onto other projects. It was quite frustrating modelling a specific piece only to realize I measured it wrong. Despite that, I do feel like I learned a lot from this project that I wouldn't have otherwise, so I am glad that I took this on. A part of me wishes I chose a simpler object to model, but I am glad that I challenged myself and learned so much along the way. I am proud of everything that I was able to accomplish with this project. Exploded Model

  As a continuation of the reversed engineering project, I have continued to model the power bar and have successfully created all the major parts in 2D. At this point, I am almost ready to extrude my pieces and finish modeling the final object. I hope to have all the pieces modeled accurately and finish within the given time of the project. I have the two major pieces along with the inside views made in 2D, along with the long metal strip that sits in the middle. Hopefully the rest of this project will go much smoother than my last update. I am looking forward to working on more.

  Here is the final lasercut design for the surface design project. I played around with the values quite a bit before cutting, so that I'd get the perfect result the first time around. I am super happy with how all the different values translated into the wood. It created a visually interesting final product that I am extremely happy with.
