ex1.3 repair something using 3d design and printing (or make something handy you can use)

Using 3d design software such as Fusion 360, design a replacement part for something broken or missing. OR... you can design a handy device.

Part of the challenge here is to design a part to an exact shape & size. Make your life easier:

measure twice
use calipers for precise measurements
take a photo of the broken object with a ruler in the photo
use the above photo to insert as a canvas to make designing easier

To print:

select your body
- you may need to select all your bodies > modify > combine > new component
use .3mf
take your file, on your SSD to Anghelos in the Mad Lab

presentation suggestion: Create a page to publish your work. (i.e. et1/3dprinting/index.html )

create a gallery of images
finished work from 2 or 3 angles
a screen capture of Fusion 3d?
bonus if you add a short video of it printing
ideally your page should have the following (like all pages)
- nav, header, footer
- gallery using columns
- a general description
- figcaptions for all images / videos
- your name
- Check out my gallery
- even better: improved gallery with @media queries

Patterns in Fusion 360º

web design foundations

There are a few big ideas in web design that we need to know. Mobile-first, responsive and accessible.

semantic HTML

Semantic elements in HTML are those that describe the content it contains. For example a <section> and <article> describe parts of a web page in a way that <div> does not. Semantic HTML aids web development and is important for accessibility.

ex1.1. emerging tech homepage

Create an emerging tech homepage following these specifications:

in folder called "et1" create an "index.html" file. This is your emerging tech homepage.
add your name & course title
add a link to your root home page ( check it here)
you will link all your assignments and exercises from here.
in a future exercise you will update this page with your design from figma

due: like now!! today!! ASAP.

ex1.2 design & print a keychain holder (or similar)

Using 3d design software such as Fusion 360, design a keychain or similar small item to print.

Once you have completed your design & had it checked, you will submit the file for printing. Your design should be:

relatively small & simple
include identifying text, icon or symbol
be able to connect to a keychain (or fulfill whatever other purpose)

The idea is if you forget your keys, we'll be able to return them to you by identifying your design.

To print:

select your body
- you may need to select all your bodies > modify > combine > new component
save as mesh >
use .3mf
take your file, on your SSD to Anghelos in the Mad Lab

presentation suggestion: Create a page to publish your work. (i.e. et1/3dprinting/index.html )

create a gallery of images
finished work from 2 or 3 angles
a screen capture of Fusion 3d?
bonus if you add a short video of it printing
ideally your page should have the following (like all pages)
- nav, header, footer
- gallery using columns
- a general description
- figcaptions for all images / videos
