brazerzkidaiinteractive.blogg.se - 123d design grid size

My pencil cup (well, my son's pencil cup). I took a risk and let this print overnight - and by the morning, there it stood. The print was by far the longest so far - 8 hours and 38 minutes. I then repeated a similar, but slightly different set of diamonds for the bevels and the side walls of the cup. That left the diamond pattern you see on the front face. I then sunk them into the face of the cup so they were sticking out the front and through the back of that front wall - the "Subtract"ed them (that is a command in 123D which is by far the most useful thing in my projects so far). I positioned all the squared equal distance from each other and lined them up to be on the same plane. I took a simple small square, turned it 45 degrees to make it look like a diamond, then duplicated it a bunch of times. So I began making a grid of shapes that I would "subtract" from the face and sides, to make it more like a mesh. I also put a diamond shaped hole at the back in case this cup needed to hang on a nail or hook (I think of everything, 12% of the time). It is also beveled at the top to avoid any overhangs which might not print nicely. Then I adjusted the back to be 4mm (by "pull"ing the back face) so that I would have additional area for an indent in the back to hold magnetic strips. I'm finding that feature to be most useful - you select the face of the object you want to "shell" and then adjust the width of the remaining walls. Then I extruded that as a solid - 100 mm high - and then used the "Shell" command in Autodesk 123D Design - which hollows out any shape. First, I drew the bottom shape - a rectangle, basically, 30mm deep and 70mm wide, with clipped front corners to give it a bit of design. I wanted to avoid making it a simple hollowed out half cylinder (flat side to hang on the locker or wall), so I designed it from scratch. This post tells a bit more about how it was made. This was an idea my 8th grade son had - something he needed - so I took on this not-so-challenging challenge.

Select and hold the arrow pointing up and drag the sphere down to connect with the body(2.00mm)Ħ.My biggest 3D Printing project so far - a 100mm tall pencil holder which can be hung on the inside of a school locker (or stood up on a desk).
