Conclusion
When I was first saw this project, I thought this project is going to be easy. But, as it progresses, I realized that my rusty inventor skill. I knew how to use the basic functions like creating a sketch, extrude, hole and fillet. But when I tried to use decal to create more realistic car, I had a no idea how to use it. Another problem that I ran into was the assembly part. When I used the constraints to assemble the car, it didn't went to the spot where I wanted to be. In this project, I learned how to use a detail view and how to place a parts list on idw. assembly file. At the end, this project is good refresher for inventor skills that might need for our capstone project if you choose to use it.
