Miniature Train

In our PLTW class, we had to build a miniature train using Autodesk Inventor. We had to read dimensioned drawings and create a 3D model of each part. We then assembled the parts into a complete mini train.

After we fully assembled the train, we created working drawings for each individual part. These drawings serve as the foundation for all of the technical work that comes afterwards.These drawings show the the dimension of each of the parts in the best possible view(s).

Problem and Solution

Overall, modeling this miniature train was difficult for me because we had to use Autodesk Inventor, however I learned a lot from this project. One of the hardest parts was designing the wheel was using the project geometry tool, but once i=I figured it out it wasn't so bad.
