Week Seven

In week 7, we used our class time to 3D print our iPhone case.  We went to an engineering lab in the basement of the main building to find a specific 3D printer that fit the size of our photocromatic filament.  After an hour of printing we retrieved the case.  It appeared to be shaped very well.  The case changed color when brought into the sunlight.  But when we tried to put an iPhone in the case, it didn't work to well.  The strength of the plastic was not up to par and it also may have been a tad too small.  We are exploring the options of finding a new .stl file or editing the existing one in the coming week.
