Designed, modeled, and machined a compact aluminum ashtray to explore DFM principles and CNC manufacturing workflows using Waterloo’s Student Machine Shop equipment.
> Modeled in Fusion 360 with fillets, chamfers, and cutter-friendly geometries for CNC milling.
> Applied DFM guidelines: minimized tool changes, and selected feasible end-mill radii.
> Operated the CNC mill, produced the final aluminum part to ±0.1 mm tolerance.
