3-D Printing Tests

Our goal is to send in Creo files so that there can be pieces printed out to test.

Figure One: Cube

The a test of the main cube will be printed. It will be hollow and 5 centimeters by 5 centimeters. There will be 100 dots per face.

Figure Two: Test Pieces

There will be four test pieces tested out. Two normal face pieces and two edge pieces will be created with two different kinds of bottoms. One bottom will be so it can fit over each peg and the other bottom will be a circle that will fit snugly in the middle of the pegs. This will show which type of bottom would be most ideal to use with the ideal project, and it will see how well the edge pieces will work.

Project Overview

The A(maze)ing Heist is a piggy bank with a twist. Incorporating mazes, the key to unlocking your bank is in your hands. Piggy banks are common objects given to children to teach them about saving money. The money is usually fished from the hole on the piggy bank's belly, but that isn't that secure or fun. With the A(maze)ing Heist, you have both. To unlock your bank, you'd have to solve a series of mazes. With the parts put together by your own design, a maze has to be solved in order to access your belongings. There are so many possibilities for the design of your lock. Your things would be secure and you'd have a great time unlocking your bank, or even seeing your friends struggle to try to gain access.
