EVALUATION:
A
predominant issue that has been present in today’s society is the reoccurring
assault happening towards women. A useful and important accessory that can
increase the security of all women today can be a torch. By having a small
torch that can be easily accessed at all times can be ideal in stressful
situations. For example in dark corners trying to locate your key to get into a
safer place, to identify strange people if they are coming to close and finally
it can be used as a defence mechanism if your in a situation where you have to
attack.
How
I built my torch:
BARREL:
The
completion of my barrel started by drawing one of the sides on a frontal work
plane so it can be revolved. The width of the handle is 25 mm, I chose this
measurement because it is small but still easy to hold onto and can fit into
small places. The length of just the barrel is 115 mm. I then rounded the end
of the barrel as well. To create the button I extruded a shape from the middle
of the barrel on the frontal work plane that rounded the edges to make it
easier to handle.
REFLECTOR:
The
reflector was also assembled on a frontal work plane, the 2 sides were 15 mm
and the width was made to fit perfectly in the barrel. When I finished drawing
it I revolved it and then shelled it with a 2.5 mm edge.
LENSE/TOP
CAP:
The lens was
made by making a circle, then extruding it 8 mm then extruded it down about 6
mm. I did this so I could create an LED look. I did this by drawing circles on
the face then duplicating them and finally extruding them up.
FINAL
ASSEMBLY:
I added the
barrel then the reflector and selected an edge from each and centred the axis.
I did the same thing with the lens and moved it all together so they could fit.
Finally I
really enjoyed this topic a lot as I improved my skills on pro desktop to a
great extent from last year.
