MEAM 101 Final Project (Swan)
Spring 21’
For the final project for MEAM 101, Intro to Mechanical Design, we were tasked with modeling a physical wind up toy in SolidWorks and animating all of its components moving together. Creating surfaces in SolidWorks initially was very difficult, as I had very little experience, but it ended up working out very well in the end.

The issue with the gears not spinning correctly has been resolved in the final CAD assembly. As seen in the video, the slots in the legs of the swan were not long enough for the rod to completely pass through, which caused some technical issues.
