Stud Finder

originally have to create a custom computer mouse, however, we were able to make a stud finder for this task. Of course we have to make something with organic shape to show the use of surface included:

this is the original stud finder that i did for our studio porject.

The Stud finder has a curve shape, basic colour, and simple interface deisgn and was built using the same method of modelling the computer house. To make a different version with the original style, i decide to change the colour of it:

the stud finder include 3 main parts: upper housing, lower housing ansd the marking board which all connected by screws.
the way i created the stud finder was simailar to the way i made the computer mouse using surface commands:

this is how my final stud finder master part look like

create the 1st lower surface by combine the bottom sketch of my stud finder shape with the projected curve that i want for the body

then create the surface loft for my lower housing

after that, i made another surface level so i can have a curve edge for my model

then adding guide curve

make another surface loft base on the second surface level, together with the guide curve

the next thing i do is to fill the top surface

using knit surface command to knit all the surfaces together and form a solid body

extrude surface where i want my parts to be seperate

this is how my parts look like when i seperate them from the paster part

after a bunch of extrude cut and box, i created the interface for my stud finder, also changed the appearance as well

and this is the marking board that i made which will connect to the lower housing of the stud finder

detail inside of the lower hosuing, showing how all the component fit into place bu the support of the ribs.
