Dr.1 Kit, Early Progress
I am designing this Dr.1 kit on a solid modeling CAD system, Autodesk Inventor as seen on in the figure. The reasons for using this system are many. First, a full set of accurate drawings are produced from the virtual model. These will be used for specifying the lazar cut and photo-etched parts and also fully define the 3-D parts. Second, solid images like the one below are possible. These will be used along with photographs in the builder manual. During design they help me see if things are looking “right” from any angle.
