Penknife Multi-tool 3D Model

As a final project for my “Foundations of Graphics” course (GC 120), students were required to select a multi-part object which they would then measure and model in SolidWorks, create CAD drawings of 5 parts, a technical sketch of a ‘difficult part’, and an assembly drawing. For this project, I selected a generic brand penknife multi-tool which I had retired years ago. The instructor recommended that our object have between 5 and 8 parts; this knife, however, was composed of around 50 parts. Below are the deliverable components of this project.
