For a mechanical project a concept drawing might be a rough hand sketch to get general ideas across but it typically does not have much detail. A detailed design should include:
For a mechanical project a concept drawing might be a rough hand sketch to get general ideas across but it typically does not have much detail. A detailed design should include:
# All individual parts in the design with thought into how exactly they will be manufactured (laser cut, 3D print, machined, etc) in which material (plastic, wood, metal) or what items will be bought.

# Assembly of all parts and thought into how exactly they will be put together (permanent, temporary, etc) and how (fasteners, adhesives, etc).

# General dimensions are also important to be able to think about how much material needs to be bought and if items are readily available in that size.

A detailed design can also be a hand sketch, like the concept drawing, but it can also be a CAD representation.
