9/15/22 - 9/16/22 Cardboard Aided Design

 Colin Szeto


Measuring the dimensions of the Torqeedo motors utilizing cardboard templates
















Originally cardboard was utilized to figure out the curvatures of the Torqeedo motors. 


Each cutout was used to progressively refine the shape

The cardboard geometry was then refined and transferred onto a wooden board. This was to allow for fine tuning the geometry of the shape with a dremel. 


The added benefit of creating the templates out of wood is that it can retain its shape better than cardboard

Transferring the carved out jigs into CAD

Printing out test parts to test the accuracy of the jigs’ measurements
