Section 8

Section 8 in Engineering Graphics was about developments and making them into 3D objects. It was fun, but challenging to see how the distances related. I had to draw the objects inside out, so that put another twist on things. Overall, I made it through will reletively good objects. The hardest part was making the tape look good and not all over the place. Some examples are below.

Unit 6

        This unit was one of my favorites. It was on pictorals, including isometrics, obliques, and perspective views. My favorite drawings were the isometrics because they are 3D representations in a 2D form. Obliques are fun to draw too, but instead of drawing three distorted side views, they show the normal front view, and then the object moves back at a 30 or 60 degree angle. Perspective views show an object that has the appearence of disappearing into the distance. Examples of isometrics and obliques are shown below:


Oblique - Guide Bearing




Isometric - Flipper Dog
