Adobe Illustrator: Industrial Object

Hello Everyone,

We created an industrial object in our class today and it was pretty cool how to make a few plain objects look like pipes using gradient.  Gradients are used to give an object a 3-D effect.

We used shapes to give the effect that you see below.  The ellipse tool and the rectangle tool were used to draw the pipes and the circles.  We also used the ALIGN panel to center the objects where they needed to be to give this effect.


The circle in the middle are actually three (3) perfect circles, but by using a gradient gives it a 3-D effect.
Pretty cool!
