Bracelet Model - OBDF 211





    

I began with the individual folded rectangle pieces and used the rotate tool to create 5 additional sections lined up perfectly. I used the rotate 3D tool to create the bracelet shape. Redid every other diamond area to have a convex surface. 

I struggled with making sure that all the sections lined up properly and would fill correctly. It was also difficult to create an accurate scale. I think there are definitely easier ways to form this object than I took, but I am still struggling to navigate the software.

Refined clock sketch - OBDF211

 I have labeled my intended process. One thing I’m still not sure of is size and material thickness, I will need help with figuring out optimal thickness for walls and I need to see the clock hands to visualize overall size!  I intend to use mostly glue or resin as attachments, along with fit connections for the drawers. Once I finalize size I will decide what I use for the drawers handles, they may end up being screwed in.
