Here is my story -
Once upon a time there was a young mouse named Oliver. He had a pretty normal life. He went to school, played soccer, and had a crush, another mouse named Christiana. Oliver and Christiana hung out everyday at the mall, but one day they got into a fight because Christiana caught Oliver sharing a slice of cheddar with another mouse. Christiana was very heartbroken and stayed in her room for days. She refused to let Oliver explain. Until one day, Oliver broke into her room through her window and insisted on explaining. Turns out, the girl Oliver was with was his sister! Christiana was excited and they lived happily ever after.
Description: Design and create a pair of animals figurines utilizing recycled bottle corks. I designed my animals on TinkerCAD and prototyped using the 3D printers. The design process consists on brainstorming, researching, CADing, 3D printing, and repeating until I was happy with my final product.
Brainstorm: My inspiration were my favorite childhood cartoon. Also, I feel like Mickey and Minnie mouse are pretty simple and easy to build.
Procedure:
Pick out the corks and measure their diameters
CAD the enclosed rings and test print them to see if the rings fit the corks
Soul Reflections:
S - Strength - One of my strengths during this project was printing my rings. I only had to print one draft for the Mickey Mouse and two drafts for my Minnie Mouse draft.
O - Opportunity - Something I could have done better during this project was that I could have been more creative with my characters.
U - Understand - Something I learned from this experience was to be productive with my time and to pay attention to deadlines.
L - Limitation - Some of my limitation were the amount of time we had. I think I could have done a better job if I had more time.
WISCR - I and S - I chose the I and the S in WISCR because I really though I was an insightful and critical thinker. I chose S because this project taught me to me a self-motivator.
