Hello Post! :) 🤩

A design/engineering strength: I feel like a design strength is realizing that usually, your first design is never your last. So you must believe in the process...

A design/engineering area for growth: I feel like when things get challenging for me I don't want to admit that I need help so I just dig myself in a hole.

Commitments:

I will take clear and good photos so people can see my work.
I will make my site organized, neat, and fun to read.
Ask my teacher for help whenever I am having a hard time.

PCB Ideas Drawing! 😎

Our 6 ideas were a plane, jellyfish, USA, tv, star, and a gravestone we chose an aircraft out of all those ideas because me and Tyler both agreed it was our coolest design and something we both liked!

Final Collaborative PCB Design! 🎊

Me and Tyler made a jet/plane this was a fun project to do. it challenged us to use many new strategies/software to be able to complete this plane my favorite part that I will remember is the making of the schematic and how to do it.

10 Ideation sketches! 9/9😁

These are my favorite because I feel they are the most creative and most genuine to me.

Post it Feedback!- 9/11😤

The feedback I got summarized is saying that my 3 main ideas cactus, cheese, and rocketship were good ideas but needed some work like for the cactus a lot of people said it would be a good idea if I made the cactus itself 3d and for the cheese people said it was a great idea but people wondered how I would do the holes. For the rocketship, I got many good reviews but people kept saying it would be very challenging and hard to do.

Detailed Drawing of Design-9/13🫡

This is an excellent design to meet my growth goals because it has areas where it could be challenging for me but at the same time it is a design which is very achievable. I am challenging my skill set by using 3d printing I am not good at using rhino and I want to get better at challenging myself to use it more.

Semi- Finished Rhino Design 9/26

This is my design so far it looks pretty similar to my drawing, but as you can see, I am missing my creative idea of my off/on button and my volume button that why it is semi-finished because I have to add those two things, but at the moment I have no idea why and I will be looking for help in class tomorrow on 9/27.

Cheese Prototype-10/7

My idea is a cheese block with a bunch of holes then 2 big holes for the speaker and it will be 3d printed with a yellow acrylic top.

I learned a lot of things from this prototype I learned that I need to make the sides bigger because it didn't quite fit.

AMP PCB Design-11/3

I worked with Nathaly on this project and something I learned was how tedious it can be to connect the lines in schematic but also how simple and easy it is.

Collaborative PCB Design Soddered/Unsoddered🫣-11/20

Soddered

Un-Soddered

Amp Before/ After Soddered- 🧐12/12

Enclosure Build process- 12/6

I am definitely on track to finish my project on today date 12/12 I am basically finished I just need to add my magnets so my top part will stay down. I finished my AMP and it works very well but I haven't started my digital project so it will have to be simple.

FINAL PRODUCT!!!!!!🥳

I made a block of cheese that was 3d printed.

Something I learned that I will remember 2 years from now is how to 3d print it was fairly simple and really fun to do.

From what I created I am ddefinitely most satifasted with my 3d printing coming into this class I knew I wanted to do someting with 3d printing and I was scared because I knew it would be challenging but i pulled it off and I was super happy about it.

If I could go back to start, I would make the cheese model bigger so I wouldn't have to stuff and cram all of my project into the cheese.
