The 3D modeling of this die was challenging which is to be expected of something that I have never done before. In the first place, acquiring the basic shape of the die was rather tough as finding my way around the tools of the website was like learning how to walk. Soon though, I was able to find my way around the page and even start working with some complex tools like “fillet” to round out some of the edges. Thus, I am able to provide the image of the die being featured.
If I was able to go back in time and teach myself and those around me how exactly to use the “hole” function on the program, it could have saved us hours of confusion.
I can see many uses for 3D modeling outside of classrooms such as the reconstruction of lost or destroyed items or objects, room planning, design, and many other tasks that demand creativity.

Great design! I like that it looks hollow, and I wonder about the experience of using a completely hollow die. I myself haven’t used Fusion360’s “hole” function, so I’d be curious about that too (and I hope that “hours of confusion” is an exaggeration, though Fusion can definitely be time-consuming). I also notice that your design has the correct sides opposite each other! Very good attention to detail.
