When I was thinking of what I should make for the 3d print assignment out of my options. I immediately chose the phone holder because I thought that it would be the most useful. So looking for inspiration I went onto google and searched up phone holder. I saw multiple designs and located some of the flaws on them to not do when I design my phone holder. Then I went onto inventor and through trial and error created my ideal phone holder that met the rules of the unit. As soon as I was finished on inventor a logged onto maker-bot and made sure that all the measurements were correct and that it would print properly. I then saved the file on my USB and then printed my phone holder on the 3D printer. Now I have a working phone holder.

What I have learned
What I have learned from this rotation is how to look up what other people have done online to use as inspiration and information on what to do and what not to do. I also learned how to put a design in my head and put it onto inventor without any instructions. I can use this as a useful skill later in life when I want to create something to solve a problem or inconvenience in the world. Also being able to use this software will come in handy when I am looking for a job in this department.
