Reflection:
To conclude, this assignment introduces me to drawing techniques and orthographic projections. I have learnt to demonstrate basic drafting skills with drawings that express three-dimensional space through a series of two-dimensional drawings through this assignment. Nevertheless, it took me a plenty of time to deal with the correct dimensions of the details and also the other assignments from different modules. Thus, I hope that I will practice a better time management in the future to avoid myself for being too rushy.
