Week 3 Lab 2- Washboard Modelling

create a polygonal cube and set it to the given parameters

hold the right-click menu and choose edge, select the interior on the top of the box

in the hotbox choose edit mesh>bevel and change the settings

hold the right-click menu and choose face, select the faces formed by the bevel on the top of the box, hotbox choose edit mesh>extrude and edit>reset settings, move the manipulator up a short distance on the Z axis

hold the right-click menu and choose edge, select the faces formed by the bevel on the top of the box, in the hotbox choose edit mesh>bevel, edit>reset settings, apply the given settings

object mode

create a polygonal cube (change it to the given parameters, subdivisions and translate X, Y, Z), create another polygonal cube (change it to the given parameters, subdivisions and translate X, Y, Z)  

choose modify>align tool, align the panel to selection

create a new polygonal cube, choose inputs>polycube5 and change the parameters and subdivisions,  align the glass along  the length and height of the top stringer, rename pCube1 to leg_left

object mode

align the left leg, duplicate it and align it to the other side of the washboard

duplicate the top stringer, move it to the other end of the glass  along the X axis, rename it bottom_stringer, set translate X to 18.7

select the top header, both stringers, both legs, go to the hotbox edit mesh>bevel, edit>reset settings, set width to 0.2

Interesting exercise. This exercise has taught me how to use the align tool correctly.
