Week 3 | Computer Aided Design


Computer Aided Design

I decided to make a flute stand as I will need it in my final project. I am new to CAD Designing so this week was a bit challengig for me but I could understand the basics. I choosed to design my 3D model in Fusion 360 and Autocad.
First step of making was to take dimention of my flute and sketch it into my sketchbook. I made a rough sketch with dimention and tried to make it in the softwre.
I checked for fusion tutorials and refered tutorials on it's Officila Website

  • Making a 2D sketch of flute stand
  • Made a rough sketch of the stand
  • Take the dimention of flute
  • Rough Sketch with dimentions
  • Search for pipe holding brackets
  • Check for fusion 360 Tutorials
  • Creating Sketch in Fusion 360
  • Commands Used
    • Line
    • Circle
    • Trim
    • Offset
    • Mirror
    • Extrude
    • Rough Sketch


    • Final Sketch


    • Making a 3D sketch of the stand
    • By extruding the sketch you will find the 3D sketch
    • Now make holes for the support




    I made a servo stand for the board. Steps I followed for designing:
    • Make a simple 2D layout by taking the dimention of the servo.
    • After the 2D sketch was completed, I extruded the design.
    Commands I used
    1. Line
    2. Extrude
    3. Fillet










    Next step I did was of making a layout of the base where all the stands of the electronics and all the stands will be fixed.

    I had planned to laser cut it, so made a design in 2D view. My batch mate Dhruv Saidava helped me to make the design.
