Drafting Design 11 Self Reflection

One project that I found to be a bit difficult was the cabinet assignment. I was tasked with creating a 3D design of a cabinet in Fusion360, and then making drawings with dimensions in AutoCAD. It can sometimes be difficult to create plans for a 3D object, and communicate the dimensions of that object well. I had no problem with the 3D design, except for getting all the components to work. The hardest part for me was making the dimensions in AutoCAD. While drawing the cabinet in 2D had a few difficulties like making everything scale correctly and lineup, the dimensions was the most difficult part because I had to make sure I didn’t over-dimension. In the end, I was able to place all the correct dimensions and communicate what the cabinet is going to look like.
