For this session, we started 3D modeling the parts on Fusion 360, and we tackled a big problem in our project, the gears. Not knowing much about this subject, we got a lot of information to try to make our project work. Before the session, we prepared the simple parts on which we had already worked on it and during the session, we reflected on the gears and all the other parts such as the platform which will accommodate the motor, the axes to support everything or the joints between the legs. For the joints we had 2 solutions, either bought specific screws with a smooth part to allow the parts to rotate, or 3D print cylinders. These are the last solutions we have chosen. For this session we don't have many photos, only a cardboard test of our monster's body which allowed us to better visualize the future problems, or at least, visualize the project.

However, we have photos of our 3D models :
