A while back I seemed to get obsessed with finding ways to use random number generators, and I created two interesting use cases, one was a coin flipper and the other was the magic 8 ball, I have these tagged on my site under "Toys", which makes them easier to find. The original Coin Toss... Continue Reading →
Another successful AU London done and dusted! The 3rd Annual Autodesk University was held at the Tobacco Dock in London this week.

If you don't have a ticket yet, hurry, they won't be available after the middle of this week. This year I decided not... Continue Reading →
I built a magic 8 ball using iLogic, utilising the random number generator to create a random answer. You are probably wondering why... Well the answer is, why not! I got the idea while stuck in traffic, and it was really quick and easy to knock together, so I thought I would share it here.... Continue Reading →
This blog post is a direct result of a discussion on Twitter! the request was to automatically assign a random colour to a face in an Inventor part. I wrote a little bit of code, loosely based my previous blog post, looking at generating random numbers to create colours. This specific code simply assigns a random... Continue Reading →
This is admittedly a bit of a random idea! This blog post shows how to flip a coin using iLogic in Inventor. UPDATE: There is a new version that uses a 3D Coin in an Inventor .IPT; available here. The idea came from my previous blog post, looking at generating random numbers to create colours.... Continue Reading →
I ran across a really interesting thread on the Autodesk Inventor ideas station. The feature request is to have a visual style in Inventor that sets every component in an assembly to a unique colour. A comment by Tanner Dant included some VBA code, which creates a new view representation called "Unique Colors" and... Continue Reading →
Converting a laser scan to a mesh can be tricky, but there is a great workflow with Recap, Meshlab and Autodeks Inventor.
As part of my AU London class this year, I am building an electric guitar using the Autodesk Product Design and Manufacturing Collection. For the Class, I have already built the guitar, sculpting the body with hand tools. The initial design starts with a PDF, which is imported into AutoCAD, this geometry is then used...
