Description: Design and create a pair of animal figures utilizing recycled wine bottle corks. We will use 3D printing to create an animal upper body and lower body with the middle as a cork.
Brainstorm: My brainstorm includes 3D printing a basic ring to insure that I have the correct measurements. If the measurement is off, I will repeat that process until it is accurate. After, I will create my animal head and bottom to secure my cork pal.
Procedure:
1. Pick out two corks of your choice and measure the diameters
2. CAD print the test rings and see if they fit around the cork sides
3. Design two animals that relate to each other (I did a reindeer and a snowman) and add those bodies to the rings we designed on TinkerCAD. (Upper body and lower body on both sides of the cork)

4. Print the upper body and lower body of both animals.
Once upon a time, there was a Snowman named Olaf and a Reindeer named Sphen. (from Frozen)
Reflections: Soul and WISCR
S- Strengths: Some of my strengths for this project was checking my measurements; making sure they are aligned, correct, and accurate. Another one being my use of time. I was finished and ready to print when Ms. Tran asked.
O- Opportunity: An opportunity I lacked was putting my name on the printing list earlier so I could print before the mob of people came in for the printer with the white plastic. (Which I needed)
U- Understand: I learned the align and mirror tool in the TinkerCAD menu. The align tool allows you to align objects to make sure they are centered or where you want them to be. The mirror tool allows you to mirror and object of choice; for example, I had to make ears for my reindeer which required the mirror tool to make them flipped but still identical.
L- Limitations: One of my limitations was the availability of the printers. Since white was such a popular color, it was difficult to print as often as I wished.
WISCR: Well Rounded: I was not just strong at making circles or aligning things, I perfected every shape and build I created to make sure I was making it at full effort.
