Step by Step Process
The process from creating it in inventor through the final printed product is outlined in the powerpoint linked below.
Summary
Through this first rotation, using the 3D printer, I became more confident in my skills to bring an idea from conception to a finished product. I refined my skills using inventor, makerbot, and the 3D printers.
