Jan 22

We will work on the plug and creating parent child relations for posing the model.

- For the plug we start setting this image for the top and front orthogonal views.


-One setup we can start by creating the top of the plug create a cube and place it at the top of the plug. Using the Edit Mode create a side of the top as in the images.

-To get the top view to work you will have to move the image to match the position of the box



-Use "Edit Mode" to scale the vertices clicking "vertex mode"



-Now we are going to extrude a face, use face mode 
-Select the inside side face and on the tools panel on the left select "extrude region"


-Translate it until it looks correct.



-Now we extrude the same side face one more time


- And scale the face so it looks the same as the other side.


- Now duplicate the object just created and put it below the original one, scaling it as well so it fits the reference image.



-Go to edit mode and extrude and scale until you end up with this:


-We add a small cylinder on the bottom for the cable connection.
-Now for the plug connections we will create a cylinder and a cube and scale them and place them to end up with this:

-We use the a boolean modified to merge them, then we use a smaller cylinder to make a hole at the top area to end up with this:


-Now we duplicate it and scale and position them on the plug using the reference images.



-And that is our plug.
