I do remember the basics of Rhino but do I remember ALL of the basics? Nope. The idea behind my castle was an eye. First thing I did was drawing a shape of an eye using "Control Point Curve" and extruded it to which it became the outer wall of the castle. I wanted to make this outer wall thicker but I don't remember how and I wasn't in the Wednesday help time. This castle has 3 walls... ...unnecessary walls. For the inner wall, I used "Torus" in order for the wall to have density. I wasn't really thinking about this and I could've used "Circle", extruded the curve and then un-"capped" it so it would look more like a wall like what I did with the actual castle. But people make mistakes and I just realized it while I'm making this blog. This inner wall has a parabola-ish shaped gate. I used the "Cube" then "Fillet" the edges and used "Cylinders" to complete the look. Now, for...
Yesterday we were placed into a group of 5. My team consists of Sara, Mich, Lex and Shannon. We were told to plan for our last print using the ceramic 3D printer. When we grouped up, we took our printed design and showed it to the group. We started exchanging ideas but it was mostly Sarah and Michi who were talking. Me and the others contributed a little bit but mostly agreed on what Sarah and Michi were saying. Here are some of the concepts that I sketched for this project; We discussed that for the our final concept, it's going to have Sarah's base, using Shannon's Christmas Tree shape with the ends using organic shapes, like Lex's and Michi's form, and using the top of my form on top of the new concept. Sarah did the modelling for the final form, which she made in different colors! We try to include everyone's shape/idea in this model. From what we discussed, the base is a solid for so it could support the top parts, especially when there's ...
I don't really own a lot of things that are dissectible and interesting so I chose objects that I can disassemble for the second project of this class. For this project, I have to use Rhino to "reverse engineer" an item that I (well maybe not just me, Bryan's also going to choose) selected. Among the three items, I choose the box cutter knife mainly because it's the flattest item in the selection and as a person who is afraid of challenges and not being able to get a great mark, I think I can model it on Rhino in, or hopefully before, due time. But it's the lamest among the three, to be honest. The mini desk fan would probably be a pain but humans should always face their fears and challenge themselves in order to improve. So I guess my final item would be the desk fan. All I need now is to find a screwdriver so I can actually disassemble the fan. The nail cutter is just there because it's mechanical and I can't find anything else. ...
