Product
My product is a basic model of an internal combustion engine
I chose it because I love building things

Process
The first objects I started with are the piston tops and arms

Challenges
Trying to use expert functions in the software Wrong measurements Accommodating change in parts for other
parts

What I’ve learned
Learned a lot about Autodesk Inventor and how to use it
There are unlimited possibilities with Inventor Not to give up Problem solving Your original design is not what you will end
with
