ENGR 1 SolidWorks "Crash Course" Tad Masek, NPS
Final Project (document emailed) • Re-form teams (3 to 4 students per team) (either from Bridge or choose new) • Decide on a project • Design (using SolidWorks) • and build prototype • Today: SolidWorks
Final Project Option 1: • Turn Coil Gun demo into a working "Toy Gun" • Design acrylic gun assembly and bring to Desert Star for cutting w/laser
Final Project Option 2: Top • You will get to use Matlab computer modelling software to design a profile in SolidWorks • (Matlab in a later class) • Design carved on Carmel High CNC Mill
Final Project Option 3: 3D design • Form a design goal for some 3D object made from either Wood, Metal or Acrylic and design in SolidWorks. • Wood, Metal objects Carmel high CNC • Acrylic sheet Desert Star laser cutter
Today: SolidWorks basics • For option 1 or 3: • Draw 2D parts in SolidWorks and make a 1/8" Extrusion • Make a new drawing from a part • Remove all title blocks in drawing and save just the part outline in adobe illustrator format • Arrange several parts into a 12" x 12" square in Illustrator • For option 2: • Draw a profile in SolidWorks and make a "Revolution"
