Animations

The Pez Dispenser was a particularly challenging project to make, as it required the creation and animation of a non-cylindrical spring. Since this could not be created using the built-in Inventor coiling commands, it required parameter-based modeling. This was the first time I had extensively used parameters, but it has greatly improved the efficiency and adaptability of my design since then.

Following our success, another classmate and I created a tutorial for the rest of the class to create & animate non-cylindrical springs in Inventor.
