Progress Update

Hey ppl,

What Kaeyur has posted is not the latest assignment, but was decided nearly a month ago, and work is already progressing on the parts that have been decided. Nitin and Bhairav are working on the 4 coaxial containers. Gokul had taken up part 1, but since not much progress had been done on it, I picked up that part. Part 1 is completed, but there are a few mistakes, so Ill probably have to re-sketch it.

Here's the screenshot.

Assignment

Hey ppl,

For our convinience, the 1st experiment has been divided into 4 parts. Please select one part and do that one and do inform the others so that there is no repetition. The 4 parts are as follows


Thanks

Kaeyur

Spiral pipes

so finally done with spiral pipes all credit goes to bhairav....it was his idea and he actually made it but i made it again with thickness....for this take a normal cylinder and circle then extrude the circle along the cylinder for this use rotation and grab method but after completing one round just copy and joint.....

While editing...

while editing some pipes in model made by bhairav unknowingly i deleted one little surface but after doing some editing in the model i resaved that file than i looked once i found that i deleted one surface so now i have to make it again for that i tried shift+F method but i didnt get the surface way i wanted than i did it with exrude and grab method than coinciding each vertex and than remove by pressing W and REMOVE DOUBLES method but it is very much time consuming so people if u find some other and better way than please let me know...

and to make anything spherical or a set of vertices forming a loop into circle shape there is tool called TO SPHERE is available for that we need to select the loop of vertices after that make the CURSOR->SELECTION by doing this 3d cursor will come at the center of the selected loop of vertices and after that press TO SPHERE tool in MESH TOOLS...it will form a circular shape and the 3d cursor will act as a center for that circle..

To Remove Unwanted Edges

on first look it appears there is some edge is there than after we thought its because of some bug in blender...than we left this problem but its not a bug in blender its actually something else which even i dont know but we can remove it by increasing subsurf level or there is another method which i got from video tutorial thanks karan for that..so for that select the object in edit mode than press Ctrl+N and than say OK for RECALCULATE NORMAL OUTSIDE after doing this those unwanted edges will disappear take a look at this pictures now

Bhairav's Sketch Edited

Alright..cheers to Bhairav for the amazing sketch of the apparatus..When Nitin got the .blend file over to my place we realized some of the pipes were flat and others were cuboidal..here's the final product after we ironed out, or rather spherical-ized the pipes..





Few mistakes still need to be fixed though..

Apparatus

Hi All,

I try to make a apparatus which is easy to make with the help of Extrude and Scaling.
