It's time to make Dtube earrings! ;-). I suddenly had the idea to make 3D printed Dtube earrings and it would be red like the logo with black and red beads to make it more unique.

Fusion 360 tutorial

First I sketched the shape of the earring. I only make one earring and print it out 2 times. The shape I chose was a triangle. It is a triangle of 7 x 7 x 7 cm. The earrings are going to be big and chunky! If I print them out and they are not chunky enough I will scale them and print them again in a larger size.

I checked out the Dtube logo on the internet and saved the logo on my desktop. I clicked on Insert and selected Attach Canvas and selected the Dtube logo.

I traced the lines of the Dtube logo with Spline. You see that the lines are not matching with the Dtube logo, but that is because I moved the logo( at the end).

Here I made the holes for the earhanger and for the beads below. The holes are between 2-3 mm.

I extruded the triangle with 2.5mm.

Then I extruded the holes and the logo using operation Cut.

I wanted to give the earring something extra so I sketched on the earring and extruded it with operation Cut. This "gap"( I don't know how you call this) will be for the beads too. You know abacus? That is a tool to calculate by simply calculating the large beads.

I sketched two circles, left and right. So the beads will be secured with two small rings. Then as finishing touch, I smoothened the edges with 1 mm by selecting Fillet.

I see you in part 2, the 3d printed Dtube earrings!
