The goal of this unit was to create a 3D model of something that is useful or meaningful to me or someone else. To complete this, I used a 3D design software called TinkerCad. TinkerCad is a product of AutoDesk, which is a software company that makes architecture, engineering, constructing and manufacturing software. First, I learned the basics of creating digital 3D models that could be printed on a 3D printer. Then I worked through several tutorials to learn the basics of the program and then decide on a final project to demonstrate my skills as a 3D designer.

The bracelet as well as all boxes I designed had a clear purpose but were not a successful solution to a real world problem. Next unit, I will do more research on a specific issue that I would like to solve, rather than just deciding on something that I would enjoy.
