CorkPal

Description: design and create a pair of animals figurines utilizing recycled bottle corks. I design and prototype using TinkerCAD and the 3D printers. The design process consists of brainstorming, reseraching, CADing, 3D printing, and repeat until I am happy with my final product.

Brainstorm: The animal i chose to make is a dog. The reason why i chose this naimls os because it is easy to make and dogs are cool.

Procedure: 

1. Pick out the corks and measure their diameters.

2. CAD the enclosed rings and test print to see if the rings fit the cork.

3.Design: Here I designed the two animals I was going to print.

This is a picture of the designed project.

in order to create these two animals i used lots of various shapes and grouped them together.

This is a picture of my final project.

reflections SOUL WISCR

S: Strength I found that building the project and find various objects were pretty challenging so i had to persist.

O: Oppurtunity: I thought i had lots of chances to do well and i was pretty happy with the results.

U:Understanding: This project helped me understand how to design projects in tinkercad using various shapes.

L:Limations :  Some limitaions I encountered were there are only so many different shapes in tinkercad so sometimes i had to draw my own shapes using the scribble function and sometimes printing didnt work and nothing printed.

WISCR:  I think the S in was really crucial in the project because i had to motivate myself to keep building in tinker cad. The W was also crucial because if i messed something up it i need to be well-rounded and not get mad.
