Introduction: Bathroom Pass

It shows facts about my final prototype and down below are the steps of how I got to finishing it. This design was hard to do and fun at the same time if you want to know how I did it you can look at my steps.

Supplies

This is the supplies I used to design my prototypes:

3D printing

Paper

Pensile

Computer

Plastic

Step 1:

This is where I drew out the ideas of making a bathroom pass for Mrs. Kersten. Also, this is where she told me what she wants the designs to be.

Step 2:

  1. This is Inkscape this is where I got the picture off the web and took it in to her to make it able to 3d print. These are the steps of what I did. Select the image and click on Path → Trace Bitmap. In the box that appears on the right, select “Brightness Cutoff” and click the Update button. A smaller image should appear to the right, if it looks good, click the Apply button. Drag the new image away from the original image. Delete the original image. Click on Object → Fill and Stroke. In the box on the right, click the Fill tab and then the “x” just below it, this will hide the filled in portion of your vector image. In the box on the right, click the Fill tab and then the “x” just below it, this will hide the filled in portion of your vector image. Click the Stroke paint tab. Click the blue box (next to the “x”) just below it; this will show the traced outline. Click File → Save As and make sure the .svg file type is selected. Import file into Tinker Cad.

Step 3:

Now I am in tinker cad making the design into a 3d modal and also making it more professional for the look of it.

Step 4:

This is Prusa slicer this is where I look at the base of the modal and see if it will print wright. From there you send the file to the 3d printer, and you're all done.

Step 5:

This is the 3d printer that takes all the information of the design and puts it on a sheet and it ureses filament to make the design.

Step 6:

This is my second protype were I use the 3d printer and seeing if I need to make any changes for the final protype type.
