My first attempt at making a personal portfolio in relation to design technology.

4. Revit Project
Statement of Project:
To challenge the student with a project of their own creation while
developing new skills pertaining to design technology. I chose to
teach myself Revit while rendering a house I designed.
Problem:
I had to pursue resources to learn Revit, as well as learning to use the
laser cutter when creating a tangible model of the house.
Solution:
I was fortunate to be taking a SolidWorks course the same semester,
so I was able to use SolidProfessor’s videos on Revit. Additionally, a
classmate offered his advice, as well as his textbook on commercial
Revit renderings.
Resources:
Revit, SolidProfessor, Architectural Commercial Design Using
Autodesk Revit 2016, Daniel john Stine CSI, CDT, Alex Grissom,
Vanessa Babcock.

6. SolidWorks 3D
Soldier
Statement of Project:
To create a parametric model using
SolidWorks and converting the files into an
.stl format so the model could be printed.
Problem:
The primary issue that I had was that I didn’t
have the experience to create a human
model in SolidWorks
Solution:
I outsourced an .obj file from Thingaverse to
use as the soldier, and then had to use a third
party software called TinkerCAD to edit the
soldier and assemble it to the dog tag I had
drawn in SolidWorks. After manipulating the
3D printer’s settings, I was able to
successfully print the model.
Resources:
SolidWorks, TinkerCAD, Thingiverse, Mojo 3D
Printer.

8. Shaft Support: SolidWorks
Statement of Project:
To use all acquired knowledge from the course to create an assembly from scratch, as well as a
working drawing sheet set.
Problem:
Some of the parts that the designer had asked for were unavailable. Additionally, I had never
created a working drawing set before.
Solution:
I consulted with the designer—our instructor, in this case—to determine the course of action to
be taken in substituting the parts that were unavailable for the assembly. Despite not having
created a set of working drawings before, I was able to use my reasoning with what I had
learned with SolidProfessor, as well as my instructor, to create an effective set of drawings.
