Pro/E Homework

This is a collection of some designs I have done in my latest homeworks from my Advanced Engineering Graphical Communications class (E128). All models were drawn in Pro/E Wildfire 4.0, except for the first one, which was a remake of one of my assignments in Solidworks 2010.









See Solidworks version of this part in previous post.

Drawn with a large complexity of datums, axes, and points.

Magnifying Glass

I decided to take advantage of this 3 day weekend to play around with assemblies. I had a magnifying glass lying around, so I decided to CAD it out. Drawn in SolidWorks 2010.




The handle of the device, made of black plastic


The base of the glass itself.


The glass with the curvature for magnification.


Connector between the handle and glass base.

CSWA Exam & Practice Homeworks

The following are from my CSWA (Certified SolidWorks Associate) exam and a couple of random homework problems I decided to do just for fun.

E28 Final Project

The following are some designs and drawings from my final project for my Basic Engineering Design Graphics class a couple of years ago. The goal was to construct a device that that when released, moves forward and back all by itself. This is just the gear system we developed for the project.


The original design


The final design, a lot simpler than before


Gearbox drawing


40 tooth bevel gear drawing


We ended up abandoning the whole project design due to severe malfunctions and developed a system that required no gears at all. Unfortunately, I can't find the files for it :-(

Homework Assignments

The following are images of some designs I've done in my homework assignments for my Basic Engineering Design Graphics class back in Fall of 2008. Nothing too special, but still worth putting up. All of the following were done in Solidworks.




Candlestick holder




Impeller made of molybdenum


Mechanical vice assembly - exploded view


Mechanical vice assembly - drawing


Mechanical vice base - drawing
