Mass = 55.56 gramsVolume = 55555.39 cubic millimetersSurface area = 24809.42 square millimetersThis model was created by first setting up the workspace with centerlines that guided the placement of the sketch elements. The top portion of the sketch was drawn using two concentric circles (c1,c2) that were centered on the origin. After they were dimensioned, two additional concentric circles (c3, c4) were added, using the center point of the circles to create a relation to the perimeter of (c2). The circular sketch pattern was then used to create copies of those. The trim tool was used to cut some of the line data and complete the top portion of the drawing. Utilizing the guidelines, the three circles at the bottom were drawn, with an arc along the bottom to which they were all set tangent to. Then using the arc tool and the line tool, the top and bottom components were connected to each other. Then using the extrude feature, the sketches were extruded to their correct levels and the fillet tool was employed to finalize the model.
