Project - 3D Modelling and Design

Inquiry and Analysis

Statement of inquiry: Digital design and Printing as a form of communication and output has evolved through time and space to influence audience's perspective.

I am a student of Technology. As part of the MYP design term 1, we are using the software Tinkercad that helps design 3D objects. Computer Aided Design has involved as a unique way of creating 2D and 3D Objects. It is used to create precision on drawings or technical illustrations.

Tinkercad is an easy, browser-based 3D design and modeling tool for all. Tinkercad allows users to imagine anything and then design it in minutes. Tinkercad is a simple, online 3D design and 3d printing tool for the masses. Whether you are a designer, hobbyist, teacher, or student, you can use Tinkercad to make toys, prototypes, home decor, Minecraft models, jewelry – the list is truly endless!

You dream it, you can make it. My goal is to become a proficient Tinkerer!

Tinkercad was founded by Kai Backman and Mikko Mononen in 2011, bringing the first browser-based 3D design platform to the masses.

You can show all of your creativity, using Tinkercad. After completing basic lessons and simple designs that are guiding you step by step, you can easily create whatever comes to your mind. Also, you can print your designs in 3D format! You can see others’ creations and others can see your work.

Sometimes you need to be patient about your projects to make them really original and interesting.

There is a lot to do on Tinkercad and I am looking forward to do some more awesome designs!
I will create a project to improve community and help people. I want to create special glasses, that would be suitable for all people. People have different sight power, but the lenses would be universal. You won’t need to change lenses in them even if your sight power will change.

Design for Big Draw

Penguins are so cute!

Design 3

I did Design 3 - a house.

Step 1.
I put a box shape on the workplane and scaled it to the size 49×36×36. Then made it purple color.
Step 2.
I put another box shape and scaled it to the size 1.50×0.75×19. Made it yellow color and put it in front of the purple box. This is a door.
Step 3.
I put a workplane on top of the purple box and put a roof shape. Then scaled it to the size 54×39×10.
Step 4. 
I dragged a box shape on the workplane and scaled it to the size 11×12×48. Then I dragged it inside the house to the corner, so it will look like a chimney. And later made it purple color.
Step 5.
I put a workplane on top of the chimney. Then I was putting 5 sphere shapes size of 10×10×10 on top of each other, so it would like smoke coming out of the chimney. After, I grouped the spheres and made them light grey color.

So, this is what I had after I finished the steps above:

Tinkercad

Tinkercad is an online 3D design and 3D printing tool for the
masses. Whether you're a designer, hobbyist, teacher, or kid, you can use Tinkercad to make toys, prototypes, home decor, jewelry – the list is endless! There are over 4 million designs created with hundreds of new designs being added daily. 

I joined Tinkercad and done basic lessons. 

First was "Camera controls". This was pretty easy. I can use arrows on the left upper corner or do it easier with a mouse holding right button down. To zoom I can use either buttons on the screen or scroll wheel.

Second lesson was "Learning the moves". It also wasn't hard to complete. To move objects I just need to press left button on the mouse and move it.

Third was "Scale, Copy & Paste". Scaling takes a bit of time, but copying and pasting is the easiest. First, I dragged two cylinders. Then I scaled the second one to height of 15mm by dragging white dot on top of it down. Then i needed to copy the cylinder and scale it to height of 10mm. To copy objects I can either press Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V or press Alt while moving object.

Fourth lesson was "Creating holes". To create a hole I just to choose the hole feature from the inspector in right upper corner. Then I need to group object with a hole figure and the hole is created.

Fifth lesson was "Key ring, letters!" I dragged letters of my name to the base and changed their color. After that, I resized the base to fit the length of the text by moving black dot on right edge of the base.Then I removed remaining letters off the workplane. And the last step was to group everything and make it multicolor. Done!

The last lesson was "Die on the workplane" First, I dragged workplane on the side on the die. Then I dragged number 5 on the workplane and made it 1mm height. Later, I did the same with number 6 on top of the die. To reset the original view I needed to drag workplane to empty spot. Then I grouped all objects. Finished!
