For this activity, we had to choose 6 shapes that we sketched previously on isometric paper and we had to make them on Inventor. When we finished all 6 shapes we had to put them on idw which shows the top, front, right and isometric view with its dimensions.

Parametric Constraints
In class, we learned about parametric constraints and how it is involoved in making an object on inventor. For instance, d2=d0/.25. That shows the the third step of the assembly has an equation using the previous measures. If you change one of the numbers, all of the other parametric constraints change too. we had to fill out a table and use that to make a table on inventor.

Basic Constraints and Driving Constraints- Inventor
For this assignment, we had to practice using the basic constraints on Inventor to create a block with multiple shapes on it. Rotating and constraining the shapes to create the image below. we had an instruction guide on microsoft that gave directions as to what to do with the basic constraints and driving constraints to create them.

Inventor Assignments
In this class assignment, we had to open a CAD document and follow the instructions in order to make the objects above on Inventor. It had us learning the features of inventor and how to use/apply them. Such as mirror, thread, coil, decal, fillet, rectangular pattern, circular pattern, and many more.

Puzzle Cube on Inventor
To continue this puzzle cube project, we had to make the cube on inventor. First me made the pieces indivually according to the combinations we used to make the cube. We then put it together in Inventor under iam. We had to animate it on ipn when we finished the orignal cube to watch the pieces come together in order. Lastly, we had to show the cube on idw.Explains the order of the pieces, the author, manager etc.

The Puzzle Cube Project
I had to draw as many combinations as i can using three, four, five or six blocks. Out of those combinatons we had to choose five to make a cube. We had to sketch each piece and how they would fit together with a 3 by 3 constraint, and when I finally found a combination using five pieces, I was able to actually make the cube and the packaging.
Engineer's Notebook
For this class, we need to have an engineer's notebook where we write everything down and sketch. it has to be on grid paper and we have to format it the correct way. Every time we do an activity, we write down the process, our ideas, and draw sketches. the following are notebook entries:

The History of Measurement
Beverage Container
We had to design a cup with a partner and modernize it by adding new feature that a regular styrofone cup doesnt have. after we drew it on a poster, we had to go on invertor and design like we had in the poster.

Cup Innovator
For this class activity, we had to come up with ideas to make the current better in some ways. we had to sketch it out (on a poster board and the engineer's notebook) write down the new ideas, and actually make a model using a styrofoam cup.

21st Century Inventions
For this assignment, the class had to make a power point picking four objects invented in the 21st century. We started with the introduction followed by th inventions and their explination of who invented it, when etc. Closing with the conclusion- what we learned doing the power point and how all these inventions affect people and their everyday lives.
