An item that is amazing/beautiful

This is a showerhead printed by 3D printer. This is one of the best way to use printer. We have lots of problem about some parts of mechine broken and we cannot buy them because of some reasons. In this case, the 3D printer will help us address this kind of problem. Nowadays, the 3D printer product are still constrained by many factors for example the temperature. However I blieve in the future, the 3D printer product will 100% perform like the original one. Every family will have a 3D printer and everyone know how to use it and fix it. This is why I want to take this course.

An item that is funny

I chose this design because it is so funny. This toys are just like the turtle cars I played on Mario Car. I barely found any toys like that at store. If I can use what I learned in class to print the things I like, it will be cool!

An item that is useless

The author call it as a hex tie, but I really think it won't be a good ideal to replace your tie with this. Basically, I can put this into the category of funny things. However, the tie is for formal dress and any design trying to make fun of it just tends to be pointless. Other than that, the author actually use the spring rope to connect each piece and this thing tends to be very vulnerable. The most important, it is ugly.Source

An item that is useful

This is one of the most useful idea I have found on thingiverse. The reason that I think this ideal is cool and useful is that I am the person who is bothered by coiled earbud cables. On 3D printing aspect, this thing is totally fit with RepRap on its size. This print does have certain amount of overhang and has some narrow slots. It may take some effort to find out the setting to print this piece effectively and efficiently but I think it is printable in general. Source

An item that is surprising to me

I never imagined that 3D printer can print such a flexible product as sneakers. The author said that he use FILAFLEX Elastic filament 3mm. I don't know what printer is needed for this filament, but this sneaker just looks so innovative and the design is cool. By the way, the author also has made some printing video of sneakers, and it looks amazing. The elastic filament may point out another world for 3D printed products. Source
