Oreo Holder

I love Oreo and I love having them with my morning tea, strolling in the garden. I made this Oreo Holder so that it is easy for me to sip my tea as I walk around. This was part of my design thinking project that I also displayed at mt school annual day exhibition.

When my friend told me about this contest, I knew what project I should enter. As we have been using Sketchup at my school, the only problem for me was to design this in Tinkercad. As determined as I'm, I signed up and started tinkering around in Tinkercad and after spending a few hours I was successful in making a simple holder. With some more patience and practice, my Oreo Holder was complete.

Please let me guide you through How to build this Oreo Holder.


Things We Need

  • Computer with an Internet connection
  • Tinkercad account or Login using Gmail account
  • 3d printer and filaments(any color)

Building Holder

  • Start by searching the objects wanted(Coffee mug) in the Tinkercad's gallery. Then click on ''Copy and Tinker'' the Coffee Mug. For this project, keep the workplane "snap grid" measurement to 1.0mm and change the project name from"Copy of Coffee mug" to "Oreo holder".
  • After building a hollow cylinder(bottom closed) of dimensions 50x50x50(L*B*H) and the inner diameter of 45mm, extend the cylinder with a cuboid of 50x50x50mm(L*B*H).
  • The outer diameter of the Coffee mug copied was 70mm so drag a hollow cylinder to the workplane from the "Basic shape" menu and change the dimensions to 70x70x70mm(L*B*H). Attach this cylinder at the other end of the cuboid.
  • You can use any other shape in place of two hollow cylinders in the middle of the cuboid and then select all the shapes and click on Group Icon(or Ctrl G).
  • For making it easier to take out biscuits from the holder, use a hollow cube and changed its "Steps" and "radius" to 20 and 10, respectively. After placing this now disc-shaped cube in the middle of the holder, select both the items and click ctrl G.
  • For clipping this holder to the cup, use two solid cubes with dimensions of 10x10x10 grouped in "L" shape.

Oreo in Holder

  • In a new tab open Tinkercad's gallery and search for Oreo biscuit. Then click on ''Copy and Tinker''.
  • Select the biscuit by clicking Ctrl+A and then click on the "Copy icon(or Ctrl+C)".
  • Now open the previous tab(Oreo holder one) and paste the Oreo by clicking "Copy(or Ctrl +V)".
  • After copying and pasting the objects into the scene, adjusted the scale, place, and align the objects in a proportion of each other.

STEAM Horse

You can find cardboard just about anywhere and for cheap, if not free. It’s versatile, easy to use, and an excellent teaching tool. At my home and school this the first thing that I like to give to the kids so that they get the opportunity to embrace STEM activities with a simple and inexpensive material: cardboard. In this project, I'll share how to make a Cardboard Horse and make it run with the help of Power Of Science, without any battery or wheels.  "This is my opening lines in the class before I start with this activity." Time Required: 45  min What:  Horse made out of cardboard which will move with the help of fluid pressure. Why:  Hands-on fun activity on liquid pressure. How:  Read-along... Things We Need 1) Cardboard 30cm*30cm 2) Glue Gun and Glue Sticks(2sticks)  3) X-ACTO knife  4) 2 10 ml Syringe  5) 1 foot of clear plastic tubing that fits the syringe tips  6) A pair of Scissors  7) 1 Toothpick piece  8) Straw, One, 2c...

STEM Bubble Wand

  Everybody loves bubbles, regardless of age. But why all the bubble wands needs to be flat and bubble always spherical. In today’s project, we will break these stereotypes and build some 3-dimensional bubble wands and learn structural engineering. We'll also make an inverted bubble cube that mimics a tensile structure. These simple demonstrations will introduce basic geometric shapes and complex engineering concepts to kids, visually. Things We Need Plastic straws Pipe cleaners A pair of Scissors Bubble Solution, Homemade  or store-bought. Bigmouth bowl or container (not in the picture above) Pyramid Bubble Wand To built this Tetrahedron (Pyramid) Bubble Wand: Cut six straws of 2 inches each. Thread a pipe cleaner through one straw and bend the end of the pipe cleaner to secure it at the end. Then thread two more straws onto the pipe cleaner. Bend the long end of the pipe cleaner back to meet the starting point and twist the two ends around each other. Add two more straw sect...

Table Toy

  Tinkercad is well suited for students as it not only introduces us to CAD but also helps us to practice some mathematics lessons and therefore, I like using Scale while designing on Tinkercad. I'll be making a Mini Dustpan and Brush Toy for my study table.  This will help me to keep my study table clean from Rubber/Eraser dust and Pencil shavings. Things We Need Laptop or Computer Internet Connection Tinkercad Account 3D printer, filament and a paper cutter (if you are printing) Designing Dustpan Log in to your Tinkercad account and click  3D Design  (Left of your screen). Then click on   Create new design . Click and drag the   ruler   (Top right of your screen) to the   W orkplane . Keep the workplane snap grid measurement to 1.0 mm (Bottom right of your screen). Now, click on   Box   shape under   Tinkercad basic shapes   menu (Right of your screen) and drag it to the workplane. Change the dimensions of the box to 30mm X 4...
