For my final print, I wanted to start with a heptagonal base (a seven-sided polygon). From each corner of the base I made a curve that curved outwards slightly. From each midpoint on the base I made a curve that curved inwards slightly. Then I used EdgeSrf to create survaces between all the curves, and I capped the base. I made sure it was at least 3 inches in diameter and 3 inches tall. Since I created something new, here’s the rhino file:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Max width (x) = 85.544 mm = 3.368 inches
Max depth (y) = 87.744 mm = 3.454 inches
Max height (z) = 78.590 mm = 3.094 inches
Volume = 132,951.526 (+\/- 0.0001) cubic millimeters (I used the volume command in rhino to get this)<\/p>\n\n\n\nBy the assignment directions, it should be close to 3^3 cubic inches in volume, or 76.2^3 = 442,450.728 cubic millimeters. Because my model wasn\u2019t a cube and the top was so much smaller than the base, it\u2019s volume is a bit less, but the dimensions are still close to the intended size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
