In this project we had to make a soap that was 1.5 inches in height to make it for someone special in our life. I chose my mom, so I asked her what some of her favortite things are. She responded that me, my dad, and my cat were her three favorite things in the entire world, so I decided on a design of a family of three with a cat by their side.
This is my first design for my soap. overall it looked okay but I had to change how tall the deign was. I also didn't like where the are was because it was to close to the edge of the circle so I moved it closer to the center. Also I wanted to change the neurons circle to be shorter than it was because i though it wasn't deep enough
after I finished and printed the final design we used a silicone mold to mold the design. first we used a covering layer to capture all of the details. then we used the remaining silicone to make the walls arond it.
Soul Reflection-
S- I believe that my strengh in this project was speed. I missed the first day of the project in which everyone started on the project, finished their brainstorm, and started creating it in Fusion 360, while I hadn't even begun. However, I managed to catch up with everyone else and by the third day was printing with everyone else.
O- An opportunities to improve my project would be having the text be big enough that it doesn't need supports, and that it doesn't fall off. However I would also need to balance the text and the design. Another one would be to push the mold harder into my details.
U- some things I learned in this project is that i learned how to space text better so it looks good
L- some limitations we had during the project is that there were not enough printer for everyone to print consistently every time they needed to print
WISCR Reflection- In this project I used S (self-motivated) and R (respect to my peers) I was self motivated because I did this project by my self and did not need any extra motivation. I respected my peers by not judgeing them when they needed help
