1. On the shape icon, click the "box" shape then put it on the work mat.
2. Adjust the size, the width has to be 20 and the length has to be 45 long, the height and the radius have to be 5. Change the colour to grey to represent the aluminium's colour.
3. Click the cylinder shape then the length and width have to be 5 including the height.
4. Make sure it's changed to a "hole" instead of a "colour", in order to make a hole on the aluminium/shape, put the cylinder in the shape, select the two shapes together then click the button that connects shapes together, and it will make a hole.
5. Click the cone shape, make sure it's a hole, not a colour, adjust everything to 5, make sure it's upside down then put it in the hole that you made on the digital aluminium. Select both shapes together and connect them.
6. Click the text, you'll also find it on the shapes icon. Then writedown anything you want to put on the aluminium. I just put my initials "SA", then make sure it's a whole, then select and connect. There you'll have your finish product!.
Conclusion: I really liked my digital version of the aluminium id tag, I like that it looked similar to the real-life one; how it turned out. It's nice to actually learn how to use Tinkercad, especially for educational use.
