KnockOff 101

Your assignment - Photograph a bracelet or ring (cylindrical, symmetrical shape); Then design and print a 3D model of the object. In other words.....make a knock-off!!!

Designing a knockoff requires design skills. You have to visualize how to achieve a result, and then through trial and error make your 3D model into an exact replica of your photograph.

Hopefully, these skills are used for virtuous purposes down the road.
