Since I started a class late my first test print was pretty simple. For my design I wanted to be able to connect two pieces so I was testing to see how difficult it would be to make one piece fit inside of another. As it turns out […]
For our project we decided to create a miniature treasure chest that you can carry around. After looking at numerous designs on Tinkercad and Thingiverse we came up with the idea and decided to give it a try. Typically, when you […]
Keep working on your Tinkercad Design Projects Send prints to the printers as needed (must finish by end of class today) Each group show me your “Iterating the Design” section and talk to me about what you’ve accomplished since the end of last week’s class […]
Our project is to 3D print a musical instrument/noisemaker. We wanted to print this because we enjoy music and think that a lot of cool sounds being produced by one 3D printed instrument would be fun to play and unique. We started […]
During brainstorming, Stephanie had brought up the idea of Samus’s arm cannon. Initially, we were unsure of how Tinkercad’s constraints would inhibit a relatively detailed design. After looking through Google Images […]
My partner and I came up with the idea of constructing a human brain made up of puzzle pieces. Each puzzle piece will depict a part of the brain, such as the temporal lobe or cerebellum. The big sections of the brain will then […]
We decided to look through Thingiverse for some brainstorming ideas for our project and began looking at some designs from the popular Nintendo 64 game from 2000, Majora’s Mask. While looking through Thingiverse […]
The hardest part (so far) was definitely the brainstorming portion of the project, as the two of us have very different majors and think differently about design. However, we finally came to a design conclusion of a type of […]
We decided to create a fully functional grocery bag holder that fits into the palm of your hand. After checking Thingiverse, we realized that there was a noticeable lack of grocery bag holders that were functional and/or comfortable. Some had “hooks” that were arranged […]
For my project I am trying to do a catapult where I can swing a coin and a container where I can score the coin. I have been watching some models in Tinkercad and I am trying to use them as a model or as en example for […]
// Roundup // Last week you started group Tinkercad Design Projects. This week you’ll do test prints and iterate those projects. Our timeline goals are that Week 5 will involve more iteration and final prints, and then we’ll have final presentations for this project in Week […]
Abby and I wanted to create a design that would reflect our mutual love for JMU. We wanted to make a functional object that would appeal to JMU students. First, we searched for general ideas on thingiverse like, gopro camera […]
We decided upon making a small chest of drawers as our project design. We originally thought of drawers that were long enough to fit pencils in, but we agreed that something that could something the size of keys in it would […]
After a short discussion, we came to the decision to create a trophy. We were thinking about whether to create a R2D2 or to stick with the trophy. However, after a few tries of creating the R2D2 we realized that it would be very […]
For our Tinkercad Design project, we decided upon creating something you described to be difficult. When brainstorming ideas, Aaron and I both came to the revelation that we really enjoyed the concept of 3D […]
Emily and I decided to make a 3D model of a brain that detaches between the two hemispheres to show the brain’s anatomy. Much of Psychology deals with the brain and how it works to explain human behavior. We wanted to […]
We decided to make a coin sorter. Originally we were going to make a device that would spit out the coins into specific stacks but then was notified that there were other, more easily printable ways to create this device. We saw […]
Welcome to me going from trying to be creative to me desperately trying to be creative. For my first few forms I made a compass (read: tried to make a compass) and an old time cartoonish bomb and some upset looking south park-ish emoji sort […]
For my first seven items I made a set of chess pieces. I did this first by finding the little pawn in the Community Shape Generators. I then created the rest based off of this item. The next one I created was the bishop, in […]
I decided to just play around with different objects until I could think of something to create. I decided to start with testing different work planes. I used the lesson on Tinkercad to create I dice and then decided to start from scratch on it […]
I started this project by taking a look around for common objects I could create in Tinkercad. I started by creating a tube of lipstick. I used cylinders to create most of it, a ring to add detail to the tube, and then a wedge […]
In this plane, I played around with importing images and the use of shapes as holes in other shapes. In the back, I created some strange crayon looking objects, one box with a cool patterned top, and a six-sided di. I imported an image of […]
For the beach chair, I basically collected multiple cubes and put them in place. I aligned the legs and arms of the chair. When making the beach umbrella, I collected two cones and used one for the outside of the umbrella and the other for […]
With these objects I started by trying to create some form of humanoid/structural form then I tried to see how different shapes became holes and found out the star doesn’t make a great hole.
Welcome to me attempting to figure out how to be creative and use the Tinkercad program at the same time as sorority recruitment trying to kill me! I was craving ice cream, so I used some of the basic shapes to build a dripping ice […]
For my first 5 forms, I decided to play around with a random basic shape and make use of the hole option. I used the half sphere to cut holes into the sphere also using basic shapes. For the first form, I used a cylinder […]
For this week we were assigned to create 50 different designs in TinkerCad. By doing so I got to explore many different techniques and ideas with the program. Forms 1-6 For the first designs I decided to keep it pretty simple and use the basic […]
Just messing around here at first. Trying out some shapes from community shape generators and putting them together. The twizzler cone was made by putting a cone shaped hole inside of the shape. https://www.tinkercad.com/things/2fhYuk7Hznm-550 I began with a basic wedge. For the second form […]
This week, we were tasked with designing fifty forms in the program, TinkerCad. I designed the first 10 in TinkerCad, the next 10 in RhinoCad, and then I went crazy in TinkerCad creating a totally unprintable scene. Forms 1-10 For the first ten forms […]
For my first twenty forms (found above), I created several interesting things. 1-5: The first five (1-5) come from the air ballon in the bottom left corner. I took a box and then created a hole as the basket for people. I then took the […]
For this weeks assignment we were asked to explore Tinkercad, and become more comfortable with the program by creating 50 different designs. In doing this I found some cool ways to manipulate the software and get the design I wanted. While I am still learning […]
Fifty Forms Forms 1,2,3 This is supposed to be the north pole. I used the spring shape and used colts to intertwine them to give it a twisted feature. Froms, 4,5,6,7,8,9,10 I downloaded a reindeer and sleigh from thiniverse, and then connected them to […]
For my first design I played with a few different tools. I inserted three images onto the platform. Dragged the yellow image above the red square to bring the triangle up to the top. Inserted part of the purple rectangle into the red square to […]
Form 1, 2, 3 For the first form I used the multi shape, duplicated it and made the duplicate smaller. I made the smaller one a hole to make the planter. For the second I used the mustache shape to create the succulent. I used […]
We decided to make a spinning gyro for the purposes of this example post, but you should work with your group partner to come up with your own unique design. Be creative, and try to create something truly […]
