Tinker Nest

0  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 sec...

  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 30...
