CAD LEGO Project

Fall 2023

In my Product and Experimental Design class, I was tasked with building a 3D CAD model of a LEGO speedboat in Autodesk Fusion 360. The goal of this project was to become more familiar with the 3D modeling software and increase our modeling proficiency.

To complete this project, we were given a LEGO set, the instruction manual, and a set of calipers. When using the calipers to measure the pieces, I was able to quickly determine the standard dimensions for LEGO bricks based on the average measurements I was recording. This allowed me to model and assemble the LEGO speedboat without interference.

Overall, this project was a fun way for a beginner 3D modeler (such as myself) to become quickly acquainted with Fusion 360.

Here is a closer look at some of the pieces I modeled, and the completed build!
