3D design and Production

For this course I basically was allowed to choose what my projects were because it was the 4th 3D printing class I had taken. I decided to make a barn that had a unfolding roof and the details inside. It took me a couple weeks to design everything and then even more time to print it. The issues I ran into with this project was the hinges were very tight and when made looser they would fall apart. To fix this issue I used two different materials and took the ABS and used an acetone bath to reduce the friction in the hinge. This worked better than I expected and made the print look nicer. The whole course took me about 2 months to complete and allowed me to continue to explore the world of 3D printing.
