Help with sketching this model

[damjanRBUXA]

Can someone help me sketch this on picture.I don't know hot to make those circles and how to put bee on it.

Are you looking to learn how to do this yourself or do you want someone to do this for you ?

[damjanRBUXA]

I like to learn to do it by myself. And don't know even how to start it. I have already watched many online lessons, but still this design is complicated for me. So little help, spet by step will be appreciated alot.

File>Export and then Attach the *.f3d file of your attempt to model the geometry.

ok thank you

I don't know how to make now copy of this and make it smaller than put it on top of first circle.

Hi,

here is one way for step 1

1. create sketch > contour + circles

2. revolve sketch elements

See the Attached file.

Do you have any experience using a Lathe or creating pottery on a spinning wheel?

[damjanRBUXA]

this is great, but how did you create contour?

[damjanRBUXA]

I have manage to do this now, can someone help me move those circles to bottom line?

There's no cheating experience.   Most authors don't start off publishing- they learned to read and write first.  You can develop basic skills by building parts- get started here:

Hi,

here is my todays way to solve it.  I used tangent constraint.

I agree with @mavigogun that you should have a look at several basic technics.

Thank you I did that all. Also I have watched about 20 videos from

Lars Christensen

but I don't use it every day so I forgot many basics, so what I need is to use it more often and some advice from you guys and soon I will do all by myself.

I have managed to make this but whatever I do I can not cut that in Half, because I need two halfs to create hinge on it.

Any advice how to cut it in half when it is already created?

And one more thing how to resize whole object so I can have two differend sizes of this?

[g-andresen]

Hi,

1. Half: 

2. Scale:

I realize this isn't the same as yours. But hopefully you can get some ideas from it.

Not to beat a dead horse, but you don't learn to poll vault (or fly an aircraft... or produce nifty CAD designs) just by watching videos- ya gotta practice.    Setting aside some time to chip away at exercises concurrent with other work is something I need to be doing, anyway.

[damjanRBUXA]

I know. I watch video and do the same in fusion 360 to practice.

[damjanRBUXA]

Thank you I learned alot from this also.

[damjanRBUXA]

Exactly what I did with my sketch but something goes wrong, don't know what.

you can see in my file.

[damjanRBUXA]

Thank you guys videos helped alot.

After 3 hours I finally finished this. Only thing I didn't manage to do is to fill those gaps at the bottom where hinge is and at the top of the cap. I tried all but nothing works. I see here on video, but didn't worked.

And another thing how to resize now all and make it smaller for 30%?

[damjanRBUXA]

Can anyone please help me to fill those gaps at bottom and top of this model?
