Lord of the rings: concept thumbs

-


On this project, it’s all about coming up with different concepts for rings/and or accessories. I may or may have not gone overboard on the flower/nature concept-

Project 1: Castle This project was a refresher for the basic tools on rhino. The castle project was probably my most favourite out of the rest. It was where I got to play around with rhino while making a fun fictional scenery. Project 3: Reverse Object Project 3 was most likely one of most successful ones. It was the hardest to make though since the laser was small and I had to do a lot of engineering on it. But all in all, I think it turned out pretty well. Project 2: Surface Design Though was the simplest ones out of all the projects, to me I find that it turned out well. Instead of having a full blown pattern across the board, I opted to having a pattern that is reminiscent of a compass to make it fun.  Shapeways Shop https://www.shapeways.com/shops/avecmuoi Since I couldn't activate the shop, this is the product set up:

Lord of the Rings: Prototype

From last weeks peer evaluation, thumbs 5,7, and 13 seemed to be the most interesting to others and I do agree with it. These were the few designs I was already leaning towards to.  For these ring prototypes, I just went for the basic shape and details of the rings. Here's the proof sheet: This is the 3D version: I struggled a lot on the flow tool for the middle three piece flower ring, since it wouldn't go one the surface the way I wanted it to. But with a lot trials and errors, I ended up with a happy accident and got it on there somehow. For now, I'm kinda stuck on which rings I want to go forward with, but the second and third ones would seem to be the ones that would be difficult but more fun to further work with.

Laser Pointer Progress II

Last class, we learned how to make springs and screw. I had a spring and several screw on caps on my laser pointer so this was a very helpful tool to bring me closer to complete my object. To be completely honest, I almost forgot how to make the springs and screws until my brain recalled everything last minute. Using the sweep1 tool I made the pointy screw on caps for all the open sides of the laser pointer. I then went on to make the circuit board. I first went to make the spring since it was the easiest part of it. The spring was a simple step of measuring the spring and using the helix tool to round it out. This was where I was having trouble with the circuit board. Theres a flat back that was rounded on the sides, but when I rounding the polysurface, there was one corner that just won't fillet like the others. It would create a new polysurface instead of making it part of the original one. The result of the circuit board:
