This practice model was created in SolidWorks. The tools I used during the making of its sketches were centerline, line, smart dimension, fillet, trim entities, and circle. To make this practice into a 3D model, I used the tools boss extrude, cut extrude, and fillet. I changed its material to 1060 alloy. When I first looked at this model's blueprint, I struggled a bit to understand it. After close inspection, I pictured that the best way to start it was to create its sketch with all aspects instead of sketching separate parts on its 3D model's main body. I then would extrude each part separately to its according measurements. If I were to create this model again, I would have studied the blueprint more closely.Mass = 894.92 gramsVolume = 331451.09 cubic millimetersSurface area = 51140.46 square millimeters
