Crystal Ramos Project 1 Tote Box
Process:
We were instructed to build a tote tool box for our first assignment for ENGR2191 class.
We first used Fusion 360 to build a model of the tote.
In Fusion 360 we set up our parameters. (thickness, height, length, width)
At first, Fusion 360 was a bit complicated to me, but the more I spent using the program the easier it became. The hardest part for me was getting the initial sketch completed (I'm still a little confused on this part), but after that it was easy enough for me to complete.
Result:
After the Sketch was completed in Fusion 360, we printed out the measurements that we used to build the tote. (My measurements, I'm sad to say, weren't the best, and I wished that I out more measurements on my copy)
Building the the tote was fun, but at the same time a little intimating. I've never built anything like this before, so everything was new to me. I didn't want to mess up because I only had so much wood.
I admit I did mess up a bit and ended up using the whole plank, but the end result was really good, to me a t least.
I've always hated measuring things, so this was hard for me, usually I just ball park it.
After the tote was built, I decided to engrave and paint it, to get it a finished look.
Reflection:
Making this tote was a new experience, I was able to build something that will be very useful for me in the future, and it shouldn't break to easily.
I enjoyed learning the Program even though it was pretty confusing in the beginning, and I never imagined in my life that I would be handling machinery like that.
I was a fun experience and I'm happy with the end result.
