Rhino 3D Modeling

Ryan Ferguson
Rhino-3D-Workshop.3dm

Purpose: Introduce basic 3D modeling strategies. 

Description: We will begin by covering some of the most commonly used 3D commands used in Rhino and seeing how they apply to different scenarios. 

Materials: Rhino 3D, Measuring tools (caliper/rulers), Pen, Paper

Homework Instructions: After completing the practice commands, you will be tasked with modeling a component or basic form related to your Open Innovation project. Try to choose a form that requires multiple types of 3D operations (i.e. extrusions, revolutions, booleans, sweeps, lofts, etc). After planning and sketching, translate this object into 3D. These forms should be modeled at 1:1 scale in Rhino. Challenge yourself and push beyond simple forms. Remember, most objects that seem complex can be modeled through a combination of very simple shapes. You can reference the Rhino training manuals found here. If you get stuck, the help tab within Rhino can walk you through various commands. Please post your screenshots and .3dm files in your documentation folder. 

Best of Luck!

My cardboard creations - By Zach

Zach Zhang

In this activity, I practiced notches, braces, brads, dowels, and slotting. I learned that measurements have to be precise for slotting.

Cardboard Activity

Shreya Sujit

The 5 cardboard techniques that I used were scoring, slotting, tabs, notching, and the butt joint. 

Cardboard Practice

Arthur Geering

These are 5 small projects i made, each of them a different cardboard construction method, so that I could improve my skills with cardboard. I have layering, brads, a butt joint, scoring, and folding.

Cardboard Connections

Keo Stanat

Scoring, Brad, Tabs, Slot + Tab, Slotting

I didn't learn much from this practice because we have already done a class on cardboard connections.

CardBoard Attachments

Zephyr Cullen

I do this a lot so no new insights came to me. The strongest connection is the triangle. Can and should be used for anything.

INTRO TO SIMPLE MACHINES

A simple machine is a mechanical device that changes the direction or magnitude of a force.
