Description: Students will follow the step by step 123d Design Nut and Bolt tutorial (using headphones) to gain more thorough tool use and application. Students may consult each other in small groups while completing this tutorial exercise. Students will export their finished Nuts and Bolts as two separate .stl files and put the in the printer queue for printing. Individual files will be placed on the same printer build plate so they are printed at the same time. Screen shots (at least 2 perspectives) will be included in their ePortfolio assignment page, along with 2 pictures of the printed piece. Estimated time to completion – 3 class sessions.
Reflection: This was a very fun and challenging project to make. I really like it because I will use it in my life. Some things I used was the circular pattern tool and the filet tool. I followed the directions like the tutorial said and it worked. The hardest thing to do was make the circle even at the start, I made the spinner then had to reset because it was uneven.
