Small Vending Machine
I decided to make a small vending machine since it's an object I use almost every day at school, and I grew up surrounded by them since I would join my mom at work sometimes, I think every little girl's doll house deserves a vending machine so their dolls are able to snack as much as we humans do, and I willing to make this dream true for any little girl.
constraints
- The 3D printer was not working
- The amount of skills I learned from onshape
- the time limits to publish
Supplies
You will need any 3D modeling software and a 3D printer.
Research
I researched about vending machines to see how big they are in feet to be able to scale them down to inches or centimeters.
Picking a Picture
I pick some pictures of vending machines to paste into my 3D modeling software and trace them and look at the details of each button on the vending machine.
Simulating
Using the picture chosen you are able to customize it to your liking and which ever size needed.
Designing
In the design process is where you sketch every part of the vending machine the buttons, the window, and the bill and coin acceptor.
Extruding
Extruding the details of the vending machine takes the most time but really brings the whole thing to life when you remove and add to its shape of it and your done.
