Chess Piece

In creating this tower of power or the chess piece rather, I have used Autodesk Inventor’s time-saving tool which is the Design Accelerator. I used the Shaft Generator component of Design Accelerator for the basic profile of the chess piece. Afterwards, I applied two revolved cuts for the curved and the tapered cylindrical surfaces of the chess piece. Then, I applied a cut over the top-most surface where a square was drawn and then applied a circular pattern so that I would have 10 occurrences of the cut portion. This was rendered in Inventor Studio using the Pleasant lighting.
