Advanced Surfacing
During my coop, I spent time becoming acquainted with surface modeling in Solidworks, which became crucial for the design of numerous parts that were used for testing
Water Kettle
This water kettle is a small project that I worked on to practice and develop my advanced surfacing skills. This required hours of modeling in order to learn how to best optimize my design tree for ease of use which is especially crucial when multiple engineers are working on files.
Skills Used
Sketch Picture as a reference for initial design
Surface offset to easily copy and manipulate surfaces
Thicken and Thicken Cut to create indents and grips
Project curve to convert a 2D sketch to 3D
Coffee Grinder Funnel Attachment
This part was used in testing for a combined coffee grinder and coffee maker. Later versions of this part were refined for mass manufacturability, this includes adding drafts, split lines, and optimizations for injection molding
