A lofted part
Creating an unnecessary number of guides for a loft
The lofted part, also shelled and with a cut extruded through it
The parts now assembled
Solidworks is a bit great, so here are some pics from my work today.
It’s too easy, unless you want to do a really really complex loft.
I’m reverse engineering a Mattbox. Now that I’ve taken it to bits I can see what an intricate and well thought-out piece of engineering it is.
Mirror in progress
The result of the mirror
An attachment for rotating elements
I suppose this looks like quite a complex model
Creating solid around a hole
Cutting is easy
The fillet tool makes smoothing elements a breeze
A nice result, and the next seven of these were just as quick to do
Starting monday I’ll be spending a week prototyping at Metropolitan Works using SolidWorks and AutoCAD.
The aim for this training is to use it when working on a stereoscopic rig, but I’m going to start simple by reverse engineering a mattbox and reducing its reflectivity and perhaps also making it lighter.
My first victim!!!
