R2D2 Model

The final project for ENGR 114 (Engineering Graphics) was to design and model a toy using Solidworks. I chose to design a miniature R2D2 figurine. The toy was designed in Solidworks using various construction features such as basic extrudes, revolves, lofts, sweeps, etc. to resemble the actual R2D2 as closely as possible. Manufacturability and assembly of the toy was also considered in the design with all components designed with a snap-fit in mind for easy assembly. R2D2s head can swivel and has an extendable telescope, the main body has a panel that can be opened to reveal the infamous "zapper", and the arms and feet can pivot as well. This project was a great opportunity to apply fundamental CAD techniques in the design of a product.
