By now,
you have enough skills to draw almost any basic shape using AutoCAD.
Most human-designed objects are variations on simple squares, circles and triangles. This is the vocabulary of design!
The new project's aim is to design a desk made only out of one sheet of plywood 3/4" thick and 4'x8'.
Because we live in a world with limited resources, your objective is to use almost every square inch of that sheet.
The process of Design
Before you start working with CAD, make sure you do extensive research and show me what you researched.
- You need to know how other people build with plywood.
- What tricks do they use?
- Use the names of famous designers and crafts people and tell me what you appreciate about their work.
- Then sketch 3 of of your own ideas in your sketch book using a pencil.
The research is due on
next class at the beginning of class
On we will Build a card stock model using card stock paper and glue .(scale 1"=1')
Bring Elmer's glue and scissors.
One we approve the design then we can make the technical drawings in your sketch book that will be used to build it .
Draw this desk using AutoCAD:
This begins next week
Create 1 top view , 2 sides views, Isometric view in ( 3D) use line weights and layers. add dimensions for construction purposes.
The grade will be include the quality of your research, sketches and CAD drawings
Upload PDF's of your CAD drawings and photo of your presentation board and cardboard model to BLACKBOARD by midnight on March 8th
