<\/p>\nHello, everyone.<\/p>\n
This is Enta.<\/p>\n
I've been working on something new again lately.<\/p>\n
My process is to start by imagining... lol (People tend to think I'm just spacing out.)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Then, I write it out roughly by hand.<\/p>\n
I'll go over that handwritten note in more detail, bit by bit.<\/p>\n
For example, you can use a ruler to get a sense of the size, or spread your hands to show \u201cabout this much\u201d and then measure it on a scale.<\/p>\n
Doing this will help you get a clearer picture of things.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Then, we'll transfer that into a 2D drawing.<\/p>\n
It's what's commonly known as 2D CAD. If you have a fairly solid idea of what you want, you can convert it to 3D right away, but,<\/p>\n
Since proportions will become important down the line, it\u2019s easier in the long run to establish them firmly in 2D.<\/p>\n
When editing in 3D, you can easily make small changes even if you decide you want to tweak something. However, getting it right from the start is crucial.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Next up is 3D editing.<\/p>\n
Actually, if you have a solid foundation in 2D, it\u2019s easy to create something of a certain quality.<\/p>\n
That was just the norm before 3D CAD became widespread!<\/p>\n
That makes you wonder, \"Why do we even need to create it in 3D?\"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Since we create the design based on actual dimensions, it's easy to check for things like interference or dimensional mismatches.<\/p>\n
And you can quickly make prototypes using a 3D printer. (The photo above is a failed attempt, lol.) I have tons of these, lol.<\/p>\n
I don't usually use a 3D printer unless the design is really complex, but it is convenient.<\/p>\n
Also, since it's hard to convey the assembly process in 2D,<\/p>\n
It's really handy that you can show people what the final 3D result will look like.<\/p>\n
In my case, I sketch in 2D, then in 3D\u2014and since I want to get a feel for it right away, I make a 3D model (the \u201cD\u201d stands for cardboard, lol).<\/p>\n
This should give you a general idea of the vibe, and we'll finalize the production method and material selection around this point.<\/p>\n
Since making changes later is quite easy when you create the design in 3D CAD, it\u2019s okay to make as many mistakes as you want at this stage.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
When I make them out of cardboard, they turn out pretty rough, lol.<\/p>\n
I make models out of cardboard when I'm having trouble visualizing a 3D image.<\/p>\n
I guess that just shows my imagination and creative skills aren't up to par, lol.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I think this is how things in the world come into being.<\/p>\n
If you think of even unnecessary things as serving to highlight the things you need, you\u2019ll come to appreciate the value of your possessions.<\/p>\n
So, I guess that means there's nothing wasted, huh? lol<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
See you later.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
