Above, is a picture of my Engineering team and I. For this project, we made a corn hole board. We did everything from creating the frame to painting. The theme for all of the boards was to create a design relating to music in anyway, and as you can see our board has a viola on it followed by musical notes. After creating this board, we sold the final product for $80, giving us a final profit of $40.
I chose to display this project because it was a very big assignment for my engineering class this semester. We all worked very hard. This project required a wide variety of skills we learned along the way including sewing, drilling, cutting, sanding, painting, pricing, and coding.
At the beginning of the semester, in about August, my engineering class designed key chains. First, we drew a design. Then, we graphically designed them on a program called Tinker Cad. After we finished the design, we used 3D printers to print the designs and we all had personalized key chains. Above is an example.
I chose this assignment because I thought it was interesting and unique that we got to be show our creativity with the key chain. It was also cool that we got to print them out ourselves.
For this project, we reverse engineered a children's toy. I chose a partner and we received an Elmo toy which we completely took apart. After taking the toy apart, we then attempted to put it together and make it work again. Taking the toy apart was cool because I got to evaluate the inside of the day which gave me a better understanding of the engineering process.
