My Project Log

For the AutoCAD project, I recreated the desk lamp, my manual


drafting project, and designed a bedroom where the desk lamp is being used.
Primarily, I did dimensioning, solid modeling, and rendering.

My favorite parts were creating the solid model, rendering, and


dimensioning. In the first two, I found them fascinating because I got to create
something more realistic and imaginable. I employed some techniques to
complete the entire creation. The next one, dimensioning, was obviously the
easiest because it’s a measurement process. I was glad that I did it in
AutoCAD this time.

What I loved about the project was rendering. In this process, one will
achieve realism of the solid model. Here, I got to see the appropriate
materials for the blocks and rooms. Besides, I got to attach the appropriate
lights and cameras to emphasize the best angles. I got a preview of the real
desk lamp.

Since rendering was the most recent exercise, it was easy to recall it.
The most challenging part of the project was recalling the entire process in
creating a solid model. I needed to gather the surviving information in my
mind to apply them to the project. I was unsure if I can remember how to
extract 2D views of each of the three solid models. To overcome the
challenge, I rewatched the lecture videos and reread the lab manual. I also
watched AutoCAD-related videos from YouTube to acquire some techniques
in solid modeling.

Included below were the step-by-step process of the project creation


with pictures.

Creating the Solid Model of the Desk Lamp

A. Creating the Heavy Base

1. First, I created a circle with a diameter of 59 mm. Then, created a line with
a 19 mm distance from the center. At the end of the line, I formed a circle with
a diameter of 9 mm. Then, I extruded them with a height of 7 mm.
2. I changed it temporarily from 2D Wireframe to Shades of Gray to see if the
solid editing worked. Here, I used the Subtract command to create a hole,
which is meant for the tall arm insertion.

B. Creating the Tall Arm

1. The left concentric circles are the lower arm while the right concentric
circles are the upper arm.
 Left
- Bigger circle (Diameter: 9mm)
- Smaller circle (Diameter: 8.8mm)

 Right
- Bigger circle (Diameter: 9 mm)
- Smaller circle (Diameter: 5 mm)

2. Use the Extrude command.


 Left
- Extrude the bigger circle upward with the height of 100 mm.
- Then, extrude the smaller circle downward with the height of 7 mm (same
height as that of the heavy base hole).

 Right
- Extrude the bigger circle downward with the height of 50 mm.
- Then, extrude the smaller circle upward with the height of 4.5 mm.

C. Creating the Screw

1. Change from top view to front view. Create concentric circles with
diameters of 12 mm and 6 mm. Then create a rectangle with a length of 1.5
mm and a width of 36 mm. Move the rectangle to the concentric circles. Use
their centers as first and second points. Then, change from front view to SE
isometric view. Extrude the bigger circle leftward with the 18 mm length and
the smaller circle rightward with 27 mm length.

2. Rotate the rectangle 45 degrees counterclockwise. Extrude it rightward with


same length as that of the bigger circle. Then, use the Union command to
combine these three solids.
D. Creating the Adjustable Joint

1. Create a line whose length is same as the radius of the lower arm. Then,
create another line below shorter than the previous line. Then, use the
Polyline command to connect these two lines.

2. Next, use the Revolve command with an angle of 360 degrees.

3. Repeat the Step 1. But this time, the short line is above the long line. Then,
use the Revolve command with the same angle to create a solid as well.
4. Create a circle whose radius is same as the length of the short line. Then,
extrude it with the height of 15 mm.

5. Move the extruded circle above the second revolved solid. Use their
centers as first and second points. Combine these two solids with the Union
command.

6. Then, move the recently combined solid to the first revolved solid. Use their
centers as first and second points. Use the Union command for these two.
7. Create another copy of the solid and rotate it 360 degrees.

8. Create another concentric circles with diameters 40 mm and 6.6 mm. Then,
extrude them with the length of 28 mm.

9. Then, use the Subtract command to create a hole.


10. Next, move these parts as shown above. Rotate the upper part 45
degrees clockwise. Then combine them using the Union command.

E. Creating the Lamp Head

1. Create a circle with 29 mm diameter and extrude it with 25 mm height.

2. Create numerous concentric circles. Start with a circle whose diameter is


55 mm. Create a vertical line at the center as a guide in moving these circles.
Move the smaller circle below the bigger circle with the center as a base point.
Repeat it until the smaller circle reaches the end of the line.
3. Use the Loft command to create a solid like this. Choose Cross sections
only. Combine the two solids with Union command to form a lamp head.
(Disregard the small circle in the 3rd picture there. It was a mistake.)

F. Assembling the Parts

Assemble the created solid models using the Move command. Combine them
using the Union command, again.

G. Designing a Room Where the Desk Lamp is Being Used (Bedroom)

1. Any length, height, and width can be used in this case. Personally, I used
the floor plan from the Exercise 12 as a guide but made few changes in
dimensions. The left rectangles are the walls while the right one is the
floor/platform.
2. As for the walls, I extruded them upward with the desired height. As for the
floor platform, I extruded it downward with the desired height as well. Here, I
added a door and window with the desired dimensions. I extruded them
sidewards with the same thickness as the wall. Then, I used the Subtract
command to create a room, window, and door.

3. To make it look like a bedroom, I attached some downloaded furniture and


appliance blocks. I also made the door and window blocks. I scaled and
moved the desk lamp near the typewriter on the table/desk to emphasize its
function. I also created a desk lamp block for the detail drawings recreation.

4. Here, I attached the appropriate lights and materials. As for the desk lamp,
I attached metal and wood materials as written on an assembly drawing plate.
I intentionally made the distant and point lights dim and installed the spotlight
inside the lamp head to illustrate the more realistic function.
5. Then, I attached three cameras to capture the different angles of the desk
lamp. I rendered these three custom views (as shown in the first page).

H. Recreating the Three Detail Drawings from Manual Drafting Project

1. In another .dwg file, I inserted the desk lamp block that I created. To
separate its parts, I used the Explode command. These parts were scaled to
larger dimensions during the room designing. Hence, I scaled the lamp head
to the original, smaller dimension, since it’s time-consuming to recreate. As for
the arm and the heavy base, I recreated them by the Circle and Extrude
commands, since they’re the fastest to recreate.

2. I clicked the Layout 1 Tab below to recreate the detail drawing layout, as
given in the guidelines. Then, to save time, I used the Move and Copy
command to create other two detail drawing layouts, Layout 2 and Layout 3.
3. I organized first the solid models in the Model Tab. Then, I returned to the
Layout tab to extract their 2D views. I used the Solview command to create
orthographic views: top, front, and right side. Then, I used the Soldraw
command.

4. Next, I used Vports and Solprof commands and organized some layers by
changing the color and line type of the hidden lines.
5. I repeated the steps 3-4 to the other 2 layouts.
6. Before putting the dimensions, I added center marks and center lines at the
centers of the selected circles.
7. Lastly, I added the dimensions. The arrowhead size, extension line and its
offset, and dimension line are set according to the given dimensioning
guidelines. As for the leader lines, using Line, Rotate, and Move commands, I
drew 45-degree lines and moved them to the centers of the circle as guide in
forming 45-degree leader lines. After forming them, I erased the guidelines.
Then, I typed the dimensions written in the plates (Actually, I also revised the
dimensions in the detail drawings because there were errors in the manual
drafting plates).
Certification against Intellectual Fraud and Dishonesty

I hereby declare, upon my honor, that what I have done in this Desk Lamp are
the products of my own personal intellect. In the event that it is established by
competent authorities that what I have done in this Desk Lamp had been
obtained by me through fraudulent use of ideas or information belonging to
other persons, I will accept the corresponding penalty or sanction
corresponding to such dishonest conduct.
