For this assignment me and my partner Keller Preston Onstad were tasked with designing and printing two blocks that each had two extruded parts and two holes for the other block's extruded parts. To do this, we worked side by side, which allowed us to design the sketch for the extrusion to be the same, and the only difference was which parts each of us extruded.

In our first attempt to print our blocks, everything looked like it was going well, our dimensions were the same, our amount of filament use and time were in similar ranges, and the first layers came out good. However, when we tried to put them together, we realized we had forgotten to account for something. When designing the two blocks, we had extruded up our poles, while the other had extruded down to create the hole. This caused the block to become impossible, as when we tried to put them together, the extruded points hit each other since we forgot that the block was going to be flipped, mirroring what went where.

After this discovery, I went back and changed my design to account for the flip by changing which parts of the sketch were extruded up and which parts were extruded down. After reprinting my part, it worked well, and we finished the project. Overall, it was an enjoyable project, and it helped me to learn to correct more, which will be helpful for the RC car project coming up.
