Design of the Day (Times Nine)

Here is a collection of my "Designs of the Day" thus far. Only two were from last year, although I rerendered one of them. Each design involved an exploration of different elements of Solidworks, such as lofts, shells, patterns, flexing, assemblies, sweeps, and of course, lots of fillets (rounded edges). I included larger versions of the images in a small gallery.

I'm starting to look at common household objects differently. I either think, "Oh, I could model that using such and such features", or I think, "Dang, I wonder how I'd model that?" My goal is to have more situations where I can figure it out right away, so I want to practice more.
