My instructor ain’t lying. Free CAD was a bih and a half. It wasn’t stupid hard to the point i couldn’t do anything. But it took longer than expected to actually complete this assignment.
For the first part, it was pretty self explanatory, i just followed the guidelines and the tutorials and got it done pretty quickly.
For the second part, it was a little bit more challenging. I had to get the measures just right to fit my current desk and cords. My desk was almost exactly 1 inch in height (for the lip part of it) I believe i did a good job at doing just that. My design should fit my desk like a glove. The wire actually goes through the back of the design and comes out on the top. Then, when the wire gets closer to the desk, the user can then wrap up the slack (or some of it) in its tiny little pillar to make sure the cord stays in place.
For the third part, this was pretty difficult. I couldn’t think of two objects or shapes that can do what the rubric wanted us to do. I ended up coming with this after an hour or so of researching and stuff. It’s kinda like a hook but intertwined with like “Snap on building materials”. The “hook” piece is the same exact dimensions as the “hook” outline in the other piece. So they should slide in together nicely and hopefully with the friction and resistance, they wont come out horizontally. But with this design, it also means that when the entire block is vertical or upside down, the two pieces wont come out vertially either.
