X. This drawing I thought was a fun drawing. This drawing was my second drawing out of the sizzling solids book. I found this one different because I was making lines vertically and horizontally then combining them to extrude it. Also taking the lines and cutting them into the outer shell. This could be used in the real world I think because it forms the shape of a chain case. The center hole could be a sprocket. The only problem I had in this book was trying to cut the vertical and horizontal lines because I couldn't find out how to trim them. They weren't trimming right they would delete on me instead of trimming. Eventually I figured out by clicking and checking on how to trim it the right way. I felt successful completing this drawing because it was my last drawing before finals started and I felt relief when it was finished. W. In this drawing I created this out of the sizzling solids. It was a much harder drawing then I thought it would be. This was way different then the last drawing because it was an object instead of a drawing border. It was a refresher to the other book because it was tools I used in the past to do this. It used blending, drilling, and uniting. I thought this book was way better because it was way more in depth with detail and how to do the drawing. Also there wasn't any mistakes in this book like their was in the other. There wasn't any problems for me with this drawing because I didn't stop in between classes so I never had to refresh myself over what I already did. I was successful this week because I was able to get multiple drawings done this week compared to not finishing one in a week. I found that procastination doesn't help at all so when I work straight through it I found drawings way easier.

V. In this drawing we made a drawing border. The drawing border is what use to be done a long time ago in previous classes like hand drawing around your basic drawings. It was basically a label to name the drawing and put your name on the paper. This drawing was entirely different then any drawing because it was just like hand drafting on the computer making border blocks. I didn't learn too much in this because it was a refresher to the two hand drawing classes I did when Mr. Merrill was here. I guess these skills could be applied to the real world if you had to make border blocks because they still use borders in professional drawings. I had troubles figuring out different textures I could do but the directions were very simple in this drawing. I don't see how I was successful with this because it was one of the easiest drawings I have done in CAD drafting. egreees for vents and other real life objects. These skills will only come in handy if I use another drawing like this in my real life object or the other book. The problem I ran into is my dimensioning because the dimensions come out wrong on a few because of how I did my sheet metal thickness and stuff because we had to choose our own sheet thickness so they came out different then others would. I wasn't very successful I was just thankful that I finished these drawings. T. This week I created the yo-yo mold. This was when you had to take the yo-yo and create the casing that plastic liquid gets poured into to make the yo-yo structure below. The difference between this week and last week is creating a mold compared to creating the structure itself. This relates to life in general because anything that is made in mass production that has a mold to it like any toys or action figure dolls. All action figurines are made by a design in a program like this except more advanced. I ran into one problem that was when the book gave directions they were not the right coordinates and also when the book told me to do something I didn't read it correctly and did the same problem over and over. I wasn't very creative but ironically I used two different colors and i managed to make the drawing look like a sweet tarts wrapper. S. In this drawing I made a yo-yo. It just doesn't have a string and the next drawing is a yo-yo mold. In the yo-yo mold you create the stucture of the yo-yo so that it could go onto a presser and then create the solid figure like this. This week compared to last I designed one side of the yo-yo and mirrored the other side. This drawing wasn't similar to anything last week besides one part and that was drilling the hole. You had to drill a hole in the center of the yo-yo to make the spindle. That leads me to the next thing I did have a major problem here and that was trying to drill the hole to put the spindle in. That was very complicated because it took me like 50 times to get the right place for the hole. This is exactly like real life because now in this program you can design your own yo-yo's. The other way you could use this is like designing an engine because you can use different levels to design different parts of the engine all at once. This week was not creative at all because it was one of the simpiler drawings of the advanced CAD.



R. This week I worked on this drawing called the end bearing and the rod guide goes along with this drawing as well. This drawing was similar to last week because you had to drill a hole at an angle and blend the edges with the drawing. The difference was doing the counter bore. It is when you drill a hole at on size part way through a drawing and then drill a hole in the center of that hole through the rest of the way as you can see and that is pretty neat. This can be applied to the real world because there is a perfect example. Sockets that fit onto wratchets. The have a square hole that goes part the way through and then it also has a counter bore which is the part that fits onto the nut or bolt you are tightening or loosening. This is a great example of the real world also because the circular part is blended arond the edges to fit snug against A. the wratchet and B. the object. I didn't have any tremendous problems on this drawing besides the fact of put the angle on it. The 30 degree angle part and it measures 1.982. It ws hard to figure out but this was an easy thing to dimension. The was too tremendously creative in this drawing but the counter bore I personally thought that it looked neat that was about it.





Q. This week I worked on the 45 degree elbow. In this week compared to last i drilled a hole though the center of the drawing that had a 45 degree bend to it as you can see. Last week I took just and ordinary hole and drilled it straight thorugh which I didn't need to bend or anything. I usually relate most of this to the real world by explaining how to use it in like a sheet metal union because my brother is in there and that is bascally where you would use all of this and it is easy to relate to. You can use the things you learned in this drawing if you need to make drain pipes but not at 45 degree angle beause most drain pipes are done at 90 degrees. I didn't have any significant problems but getting the right lines to dimension this drawing. If there is any dimensions that are not included or are not there you Jeffrey Bailey said I was excused from it because we were not able to solve for it. This week I thoght I as well as other advanced CAD kids I was creative because this was a very compex drawing and I was able to finish it and dimension it correctly. P. During this week we had to design the checkbase. There was not any recent drawings because the semester had just started. This week I learned how to take an angle or a line and bend it according to what I needed. In this drawing you can see that we had to bend it 20 degrees. These skills could be applied to the real world if you had to bend metal for heater vents or something. This would mostly be used doin duck work in the sheet metal union. This week the problems I had was trying to get the right dimensions. If there are any dimensions that are not exactly right it is because Mr. Bailey excused me and this will not affect my grade. The only one way I can say I was successful in this drawing was to be able to complete this drawing because this was very difficult to me. I was not very creative in this drawing because I needed a lot of help and this course is getting hard because the drawings are becoming complicated to understand.
