I made this product for my father because he continuously lost his glasses and pens. This is so he can keep track of them more efficiently.

Supplies

Prusa slicer, Prusa 3D printer, Pla filament.

PrusaSlicer | Original Prusa 3D printers directly from Josef Prusa

Designing

To design this product, I used tinker cad. To start I put a rectangle and a half circle on the build plate then used the negative function to delete portions until I had a box with negative space inside of it. I then merged these items together and added a star on the front for decoration.

Making the Test Product

To make the test product I used cardboard and hot glue to build a model. I cut the cardboard to size and then glue the pieces together to make a sturdy model.

Refining and Editing

One of the things I fixed during refining and editing was I made the compartment for glasses more circular as well in changing the star out for a heart. This made it so that the glasses would better fit in the design looked better overall as well as adding a structure.

Final Product

The final product was made with gold PLA filament using a Prusa 3D printer. First i loaded the design onto a SD card, then I loaded the filament into the printer. Press start and wait for your print to be done(this will vary depending on how large you make it) !
