3D Printed Desktop Organizer
iDeATe: 3D Modeling and 3D Printing, Spring 2022
For my 3D modeling and 3D printing iDeATe course, my final project was to model a compact and functional desktop organizer in Autodesk Fusion360, which was then 3D printed for day-to-day use. The constraints for this project was that the organizer needed to fit a 5" x 5" x 5" box. The 3D print was made using acrylic filament, and took roughly 18 hours of total print time. The desktop organizer was designed to organize mostly stationery, like pens, pencils, post-its, chap stick, and other items. There is a phone stand on the left of the desktop organizer, with a small opening for the charging port.

Gallery of objects modeled and textured in Autodesk Fusion360
Throughout the scope of this course, I also had to model different objects around a room to practice using Autodesk Fusion360 as a CAD software with different tools, like loft, revolve, sweep, and fillet. Some of these items were modeled, textured, then finally rendered using realistic materials and lighting. The gallery above features objects of all sorts that would be found in a room, made to scale.
