Layers Project For my layers project I chose to create a topographical map that also functions as a clock. I came up with the design because I had always wanted to make a clock and I was inspired in class to create a map of some kind so I ended up just combining the two…
Altered Toys Project Finished – Madison Little
I was finally able to paint my the octopi and finish the toy. I printed five of them and painted them yellow because I wanted them to be a little different from the red monkeys but still capture the same bright colors of the original toy.
Altered Toys Project WIP – Madison Little
I finished creating the toy in SolidWorks and then sent them to pe printed. The octopi for my octopi in a barrel toy printed well however I still need to paint them. I am really happy with how they fit together and are able to create a chain just like the original Monkeys in a…
Lantern Project Finished – Madison Little
My lantern project ended up being more of a sign then a lantern. I really wanted to make something that would fit the project but also be functional so I went with a sign because my roommates and I have been trying to figure out wall decorations for our apartment next year. I am really…
Layers Project Finished – Madison Little
I am really happy with how it turned out. I ended up staining the bottom 3 layers and then I finished all of the layers with a couple of coats of Polyurethane. I then assembled it using wood glue and inserted the clock mechanism.
Kerri Thornton: Altered Toys Project Finished
Here they are! They doesn’t work quite as well as I’d hoped (I need to figure out how to increase the tension on the wiper blades so they press tightly up against the goggles), but as a prototype and art piece they’re neat and serve their purpose. The goggles are standard safety goggles that fit…
Final Project
For this assignment, I aimed to work with readily available materials, opting to layer construction paper to represent a forest within a tree-inspired frame. Crafted using Solidworks and PLA printing, my lantern project embraces a nature-inspired motif featuring geometric flowers. To elevate its visual allure, I painted both the exterior and interior with contrasting shades…

Layers Project For my Layers project, I created a terrain map of Olympus Mons, a shield volcano on Mars. In pictures it looks very flat (hence the name shield volcano), but it is actually over 2.5 times taller than Mount Everest! I began the project by finding an STL of the mars terrain online, and…
Finished Altered Toys Project
My final altered toys project was designed in Solidworks and printed using PLA. I painted it with acrylic paint and used marker to add details. I posed my design in with the legos that I grew up playing with.
Finished Lantern Project
My lantern project, created using Solidworks and printed in PLA, embodies a nature-inspired theme with geometric flowers. To enhance its visual appeal, I painted the exterior and interior in contrasting shades of blue, adding depth to the project while preserving its simplicity and symmetry.
