Screwdriver


This project allowed for personal creativity within the specified guidelines. Once a control point curve is used to draw the basic outline of the screwdriver it is used to rotate and make the basic screwdriver shape. Once completed a flat wirecut is used to make the flat head of the screwdriver.



Lastly, the grip design was created after using a small pipe arrayed around the object which was then differenced from the screwdriver to leave an indentation. I used the same process to give a personalized name to the screwdriver.

Some changes I would do differently in the future would include more attention to detail. This includes filleting edges to make a more smooth seamless look as well as a more proportionate model.



One thing I could have improved on this project was the proportion of the screwdriver, even though I stayed within the guidelines my screwdriver is unproportionate. simple measurements and planning could have lead to a more precise screwdriver.



I am happy that this project showed how simple generating projects can be accomplished if you utilize rhinos different tools. Constructing this project before this exercise wouldn't have been an efficient use of time. This activity streamlined creation.


During this project, I learned how to different objects by using boolean. This is one of the most practical tools I have used throughout the class. This activity gave me the knowledge and ability to leave different designs in different objects otherwise not possible.

Head 3D Scan

In order to get a 3D version of my head into R hino , I had to sit in a chair for 30 second white someone walked a perfect circle around me. Frankie, my Professor was holding a 3D scanner plugged into a laptop. Multiple scans were done were done with different angles in order to get all features of the face. Once I imported the file into rhino I have an editable mesh of my own head. .

Rubber Duck

This prompt didn't allow much freedom of creation. I completed this project following the instructions but decided to render differently. This project taught me how to build using surfaces as well and rebuilding a surface. Rebuilding the duck body allows you to add control points which allow modification of the body shape. This assignment also taught me how to blend 2 different surfaces to create one seamless object. The final skill introduced in this exercise was rendering. The duck assignment teaches you basic skills to shape object organically as well as render them. Something I could have improved on with this project was the use of control points. With the use of only 8 control points on the duck sacrifices of precision were made. Something I will do differently in the future is the use of more control points. The rubber ducky activity used only a few control points to modify the shapes. Adding more control points will allow for more detailed and pre...

Reverse Engineered Project

This was the first project where I saw all the homework activities fall into play during this project. I started this prompt with detailed measurements of the phone case within .001 inches wherever possible noted on a sketch. Just like for the screwdriver and screwdriver assignment these measurements guidelines for all the lines in this project. Once the linework was down, I used loft/cap/ and extrude curve, were used to create the different colored surfaces which all together make the phone. I am most pleased that my this project turned out to be so realistic. At first, I doubted my abilities to recreate the phone case. With precise measurements and the time taking the task of laying out every line, the final product was worth it. I am most pleased that my this project turned out to be so realistic.
