Bringing an old mechanical drawing of a crock lid back to life
This picture has its own page with more detail, click here to see it.
This is 1937 mechanical drawing of a 1-gallon Medalta crock lid. Medalta Potteries manufactured crocks, on a large scale, from the 1920s on. In this example, I first imported the drawing as a canvas into Fusion 360, sized it and then positioned it so the center of the knob was at the origin point. I then traced the lid outline to create a sketch. Finally, I revolved that sketch to create the 3D lid. This was part of a project to enable a potter to make lids to fit the old crocks.
