On Friday, we started to use SolidWorks to design our bottle opener.
We had watched a tutorial on building a part and we dived right in. Bryn and I shared the 2014: I was building 4, while she was making the 0. Problem: No oval in template. This meant that she would have to build the oval 0 using (lots of) splines. In the meantime, I was considering carving out a four from a rectangle by splicing and adding lines. After a few minutes of tinkering with a rectangle, I decided to start from scratch and build it using lines. We had to figure out how to define all the lines of our sketches. We also don't know how we are going to combine the 01 with 4 and then 2.
This is how far we had gotten at the end of the day:
