Week 2: Computer-Aided Design¶
Small animal portable house with Corel Draw¶
We entered Corel Draw and designed the portable house for small animals
We go to the color palette section and choose the light blue color
We click on text to be able to write the title of the project
The result we obtain is:
We enter rectangular tool to create the house
We duplicate the square to make the other part of the house
We create your tires
Creating the divisions with a 2 point line
We create the containers
Creating the portable house handles
We enter the image of the guinea pig
We increase the food container
Portable Small Animal House with Inkscape¶
STEP 1: We click on the bezier tool
STEP 2: We frame a square to make the cage for the smaller animal
STEP 3: We paint the area with the fill tool, choose the color and replicate the graphic
STEP 4: With the bezier tool I make the traces of the cage
STEP 5: We import the image of the guinea pig to the work table
STEP 6: We complete the work with circles and color
STEP 7: The cage is left this way
Comparing Corel Draw with Inkscape¶
The results are similar. Personally, I like Corel Draw better because of the simplicity of its tools
Chess board made with onshape¶
we change the configuration to millimeters and we make squares then we make the edges with 5 millimeters and then 1 millimeters and it looks like this
We make 6 types of square models and begin to assemble 64 squares in a row to make the chessboard
we begin to join the pieces or assemble them one by one and change the color of the squares
When we finish joining all the pieces, the chessboard is taking shape
Chess board made with tinkercad¶
STEP 1: We click on the cube and drag it into the work box
STEP 2: The squares are 20 mm so the thickness has to be 2 mm
STEP 3: Duplicate with the duplicate tool on arrow 1 then set the thickness to 1 mm on arrow 2 and change the color with arrow 3
STEP 4: Duplicate and start forming the chess board
STEP 5: Complete the board in total with 64 squares, some of them 2 millimeters and others 1 millimete
STEP 6: The difference of 2 millimeters and 1 millimeter is shown
Comparing Onshape with Tinkercad¶
When making the chess boards in the 2 programs, it is observed that in the tinkercad software it is more intuitive, unlike onshape, you can do more detailed work. In the end, I loved using the 2 software
