3D Printed Junior Progressions: Next Step


Challenge: For student to further develop a range of prints showing progression and student design development.

Background: This is the fourth version of this design which was featured on this blog in its initial design and then followed by several updates.  These came as the student wanted to ensure the storage was correct and could maintain the items that she was wanting.

The original print details and the three versions of it are contained here in a link to the individual print information.

This version was reflective of these changes.   The print has essentially changed a little with the design as the student originally wanted undergoing revisions as she developed and proof tested it.

Level of Difficulty: This would be an ideal project for a student confident in using Tinkercad and she did so using the main interface.    She included her name on the design so it could tick off the personalisation aspect.   There is also considerable storage on the middle level of the design.

Timeframe: Five hours.   This print has undergone revision due to the size and the desire of the student to have particular items held by it.  I could be upsized but the student is currently happy with this.

Size: The print was 80mm long 70mm wide at the front and was 60mm high.   The internal storage area is 40mm across and 20mm high.   It moves 20mm deep into the base of the design.

What we would do differently/next step for the students: The design is now complete as the student has completed the revisions that she wanted to.  She is a Y4 student at our school a student who is eight years old.
