Evaluation of Your Assignment for 3D Scanning and Printing Week
3D DESIGNING
The caption for the image (The steps of designing the object) looks to be far away from the image and hard to relate it to the image. Modify your image by cutting the extra white space from the bottom of the image, then the caption will be close enough to the image.It is good that you have clarified the steps. But you are not providing enough information for each step. For example, which option of moving did you use to move objects inside each other? What is the size of each sphere?In addition to the torus, I can see from the pictures and your design file that you have created a cylinder as well. But you have not explained it in the steps. Please add it to the steps."Clear explanation and the reason of why the object could not be made subtractively." --> Here also explain a bit about your model that it is comprised of a few spheres with different sizes. First you have the cylinder (C), then the smaller sphere (S1) around it, then another sphere (S2) slightly bigger than S1 around S1, and so on. And also none of the spheres are touching each other, but instead are floating inside one another.You have good screenshots including the explanation of the steps. However, there are some typos in the texts on the images. Please fix it. Moreover, please make the text on the images or generally in the text more readable. For example, instead of create-circle, write create >> circle, or in any other way which is understandable.As mentioned previously, please keep in mind that in your documentation you need to explain everything in the text and then support your text with the pictures/screenshots of the important steps. Please write in detail about your design steps in the text as well.
3D PRINTING
-
typo: "In my group assignment, I found there a big different between the machines" --> there is a big difference -
typo: "and because my project is small and need to support material." --> needs support material -
"A comprehensive tutorial for the Insight software can be found here." --> where? If you wanted to provided a link, you probably have forgotten. -
"Then I clicked on Finish button and after that Built the job button." --> After doing this, you also worked with the 3D printer interface. Please explain this step as well.-
Where did you adjust the location of the object? From the 3D printer or from the Insight software? Please write about it. -
Please add captions for the pictures in the 3D printing section. As mentioned before, please keep in mind that generally having captions for all of your pictures is necessary. -
The pictures that you uploaded for showing the 3D printing process are very bad quality and most of them are not readable at all. After this sentence "Finally, I pressed on the Build menu and the details of my design and the time estimate for my print shown on the screen, then I pressed on the Play sign and the printer started printing.", you have 4 pictures. The first and second ones are not readable at all. Please fix this.

-
You combined 4 different images and reduced the quality to around 50 KB! That is why the pictures are not clear and readable. It is OK if you separate the images and consider having the size of 50 KB for each! Your images should be readable otherwise there is no point to have them! -
"I put the printed object into the cleaning tanks." --> write down what solution was inside the tank?
The solution in the tank is: Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH)
"So, I only needed to wait for the existing detergent in the tank to do the job." --> Write down for how long did you leave your object inside the tank?
3D SCANNING
-
"First, I turned on the three switch and put my toy inside the scanner, but a part of the toy cannot be scanned." --> Please explain what could be/was the problem that a part of toy could not be scanned. -
A hero image (clear image) of your 3D scanning result is missing. -
Your .thing and .stl files do not open. Please upload again and make sure that they work. -
Provide more information about the setting that you provided for 3D scanning, such as light, background and etc. -
"I printed a clock image but did not use it cos I found no one use it and I turn on the light that make the room blight." --> the clock image is useful for photogrammetry method :) You did not use it for MakerBot Digitizer. -
"I printed a clock image but did not use it cos I found no one use it and I turn on the light that make the room blight." --> Typo: blight
Please do the fixations and leave comment when your document is ready.
