Unit 8: Advanced Computer Modeling
Miniature Train
Project 8.1a Model a Miniature Train
Introduction
Have you ever ridden on a train or owned a train set? The parts that make up the engine car on a train can vary depending on the make and model; however, all train engine cars have parts that are similar.
Interpreting dimensioned drawings is an important engineering skill. Using drawings to create a computer model of a part is also important. You learned earlier in this course that a sketch is the documentation foundation for related technical work. Communicating this information effectively allows a group of people to function as a design team.
In this project you will further develop your modeling skills and your ability to use a computer as an efficient communication tool. The skills that you learned earlier in this course will be systematically applied to model the eight remaining parts needed for the Miniature Train Assembly. The parts with the dimensions are listed below.
