I feel that it should be made clear and understood here that I did not use a standard "graphics" program for any of the "draft" images I ever post. What I mean by "draft" is that they were made in my drafting class during my free time, on a program called Solid Works. It is NOT the same thing as graphics programs, in that Solid Works is a tool used by drafters and mechanical engineers in order to virtually "build" machine parts, and then test them for weaknesses, before ever having to commit to making them in real life. This saves them time and money, because if the part turns out badly, they can start over. Objects I have created in Solid Works are basically made by drawing up blueprints for the items in question, with exact measurements and degrees. pieces that have joints or parts must be created in several separate files and then assembled manually inside the program, in such a way that the joints and parts function together.

I made this as a Christmas card for my drafting teacher when I had no extra work to do.
