I did think about a pez dispenser like Shane, and shoutout to him for posting his stuff because it helped me stop second guessing my own project and post it. I used to love playing with anything with small moving parts. The little model cars always made me so happy if I could find one that had a door or trunk that opened. I found a model truck I liked on Thingiverse (https:\/\/www.thingiverse.com\/thing:891393) and turned it into a sort of food truck for medication. Having a tiny delivery truck would give me a touch of motivation to take my meds everyday, and I think that an important part of staying happy is to enjoy the small things, this will only help with that. I added in a little me to drive the truck, but there&#8217;s no actual steering wheel because I feel like I don&#8217;t have much control over my medication, there&#8217;s nothing I can do to improve its chances of having the desired effects. The bars on the back are to keep the medication from falling out the back window but also because sometimes the idea of needing to take something everyday is a bit stifling. I put a menu on the truck because my meds are oftentimes changing so much I wanted the truck to be customizable. I&#8217;m thinking of adding a little strip of something that allows for a dry erase marker to be used on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"663\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sfbr-1024x663.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sfbr-1024x663.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sfbr-800x518.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sfbr-768x498.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sfbr-463x300.png 463w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sfbr.png 1258w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"605\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sdbcvsksv-1024x605.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sdbcvsksv-1024x605.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sdbcvsksv-800x472.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sdbcvsksv-768x453.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sdbcvsksv-508x300.png 508w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/sdbcvsksv.png 1272w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"591\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/srg-1024x591.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/srg-1024x591.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/srg-800x462.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/srg-768x444.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/srg-519x300.png 519w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/srg.png 1295w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"995\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/dbvsk.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/dbvsk.png 995w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/dbvsk-800x543.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/dbvsk-768x521.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/art-in-the-makerspace-21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/dbvsk-442x300.png 442w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 995px) 100vw, 995px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently if you wanted to store a lot of meds in here you would have to flip it vertically to open it without spilling the contents, so I may have to change that back design in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love functional pieces, and I think taking my meds is extremely boring to the point where I don&#8217;t even want to muster up the energy to open a bottle.
