Challenge: Student locate an SVG file and adapt it significantly. As note from a number of recent prints
this project started with an SVG file.Background: As noted this came as an extension project as part of our students sourcing of SVG files. In this instance this student wanted to have an animal from another country to represent themselves and then convert it into having a stand.
The student then created base and featured their name on it prominently. They were working as part of cohort one (having used Tinkercad since the start of the year) and are seven years old. They were able to complete task independently without teachers input.
Resources used to complete the task: Tinkercad App, iPad, Bambu Printer (P1P) and Bambu PLA, Pic Collage was used for the AR/VR imaging.
The design was then put into the
Tinkercad App and the iPad was used to
AR/VR the image. This image was then put through a further filter being an
AR/VR filter which was a '
Magic Camera' option from the Pic Collage App.
Level of Difficulty: Medium - the design was repeatedly reworked by the student until they were happy with it and adding the
AR/VR element to the presentation.
Size: The print measured 140mm across at the front of the base, the height of the base was 50mm high and 20mm wide. The deer itself 110mm across and 120mm high. the silhouette of the print was 10mm wide.
Cost/Price: The price of the print was two dollars and fifty cents based on the use of the PLA that was 83g of PLA for the print and 17g for the support of the print.
Timeframe: Six minutes of print time and three hours and seventeen minutes of project print time. This print was completed during the basic settings for the printer including the speed and infill on the print.
What we would do differently/Next Steps for the students: The front leg of the print as can be seen in the picture is bent - this proved to be challenging for the printer to complete as essentially it was a curve. While this did not appear obvious when looking at the virtual image on the iPad however it became a challenge in practical terms when printing it.
It is going to involve a resolution between the design and the practical creation process of the printer.
