Reverse Engineering Object: Selection

So selecting my objects for this reverse engineering project, I wanted to select an object that was do-able.

I have selected a tray, a pair of scissors, and a photo frame. All three of them have separate parts that can be pulled apart and put back together, the tray and the photo frame doesn't require screws and specific tools to take apart. I believe the scizzor I have has a screw and ending tab thing that attaches the blade and plastic handles.

These three objects should be considered "mechanical" in nature enough. I chose scizzor as my first option since it seems the most mechanical and simple. The tray is more of a repeating pattern all around even with the objects holding the two trays separate, it's still a repeating thing. So a challenge for the pattern and sizing to fit each other, along with alignment, but besides that it should be a somewhat reasonable object to do for three weeks. A photo frame, because of the pattern and detailing to the frame, along with the back screws for the "hinges" I think it's a cool idea to go with, even though it seems very 2D. it's a good variation in material if we render the objects in those three weeks too compared to the others that are just plastic and metal.

Memorial Jewellery Documentation I

Hello! It is technically the "summer" and I have an assignment to create a death artifact for a deceased character. I've dug deep into my childhood to find Ember McLain from the Nickelodeon animated series 'Danny Phantom'. She passed away as a teenage aspiring musician in the early 1970s in Amity Park America. So I thought it'd be cool to mash up the American 1970's early punk era with the formal memorial diamond/jewellery death artifact. I came up with some sketches after researching the different types of diamond cuttings and earring designs I could go with. Since Ember wore a purple dual earlobe set throughout the show, I thought I'd also create a memorial earring set that follows that theme. Following her colour palette of blue, purple, black, and grey, I ended up choosing the blue memorial diamond option since it was better than the black synthetic gem for a family memorial piece. Then I paired it with silver for the rest of the earring design si

3D Printed Object: Hybrid Design

Concept Generator: These were the outcomes of what I had for generating concept, some of mine wouldn't fully work when I really thought of how the 3D printer worked. Only the flat coned shape and 3 rings fully worked, and it matched with my groups' the most since their shapes were mainly in a cylinder-like. Combining Group Objects: I was in a group with Adam and Siwon. Out of our three designs, Adam's had the more sturdy base design so the 3D Printer could hold everything together. Siwon's design was a more decorative angled vase shape, like diamond-cut edges. My design, placing it into Slic3r separately, I could tell the rings immediately didn't look as sturdy as we wanted. So mine has the most changes or reconsideration in how that would end up printing. We had to make sure the rings interlock with the base and each other so that the printer would keep everything into one piece without falling apart mid-print. Initially, we had Siwon's in t
