Final Object
For this project I decided to recreate a precision knife. It was interesting to take apart and look at all of the different materials that it was made up of. I started with the blade part as I figured it would be the easiest. And for the most part it was besides when it came into filling in the sharp edge. That took a little longer than expected. I then moved On the bigger handle part as it is just a cylinder on the outside. There was a small dome piece at the bottom that had flat sections cut from it and the middle was metal rather than the plastic and rubber outside. At the top there is a metal lip that extends further than the rest and that funnels down into threads where the screw part attaches to. The top part is where I went with next. It started off as thick as the rest them funnelled smaller and slightly bigger again. Through the middle it was a hollow metal cylinder. The center screw was one of the hardest parts as it had threads on it so that took quite a bit of trial an error. The hardest part over all was the read rubber pieces on the outside as I had to create the shape and then figure out how to curve it around the cylindrical part of the knife. And when I went to add the materials to the knife as they would not show up on the selected piece. It took a lot of trial and error but in the end I got it to work and I think I got the colours to match pretty well.
