TinkerCAD Lesson 4



TinkerCAD Design 1: 

To create this shape I had to: 

House

1. First of all I started making the house 
2. So I went 'shape generators' and on 'geometric' 
3. I searched for the red box and clicked on it
4. I changed the length to 20mm and width 20mm as well as the height to 20mm
5. I then changed the colour of the box to purple
6. Then I searched in the geometric section for the roof 
7. I changed the length to 20mm and width 20mm as well as the height to 10mm
8. To make the door, I clicked again for the red box but made it smaller to fit the house (height of 13mm, length of 9mm and width of 3mm) 
9. To make the chimney I got another red box but sized it to a height of 14mm, width of 8mm and length 7mm and placed it on top of the roof
10. To create the smoke, I searched the sphere in the geometric section and made it small so it could fit the chimney. 
11. When I found the correct size, I just copied and pasted the sphere to make many; to create the tower on top of the chimney.

Snowman

1. I searched the sphere in the geometric section and placed in on the workplane
2. The first sphere is of a length of 24mm, width of 26mm and height of 20mm
3. The second sphere is of a length of 19mm, width of 19mm and a height of 20mm
4. The last sphere is of a length of 16mm, width 16mm and a height of 17mm 

Smiley Face 

1. I searched the cylinder in the geometric section 
2. I flattened it to a height of 3mm, the width is 43mm and the length is 38mm  
3. Then I clicked the sphere and placed two spheres as eyes
4. I then clicked the hole option, so that there would holes as shown in the picture below
5. Then I clicked the half sphere and placed it below the eyes
6. As before I clicked the hole option to make it a hole
7. I clicked on the box and made it to a length of 17.08mm, width of 6.28mm and height of 5,71mm
8. I then clicked on the cylinder and flattened it to a height of 3mm, width of 31mm and length of 45mm
9, I then went on 'letters' option and clicked the letters 'h' and 'i', which obviously spell 'hi' 
10. I then found the exclamation mark and placed it next to the letters. 


Reflection 

I did this design first because it was the one that looked the easiest, and after all it wasn't that hard, though sometimes I got really stuck and had to ask for help to friends. I think it turned out fine, it nearly resembles the picture given to us from Ms. Veena and I gave it my own touch by changing the colours of the shapes to my liking. But as you can see I missed out a shape/ object which is the wagon cart. I missed that one out because I tried building it and using different shapes but it still didn't come out right. I tried undoing the wagon and I tried several times, I didn't give up easily but it still would turn out wrong. So that's why I have all the shapes but not the wagon cart.
