Research
Process
In the process of creating this toothbrush holder I had to complete many steps. To start off i would have to create a simplistic 2D design to extrude. I started off with a simple whale. After that i extruded it 4 inches. I then measured out where the holes would go and how I would line up the face on the whales head. I exported it to maker bot and sized it up and added supports. I went down to the shop and plugged in the hard drive and it started the 11 hour printing process. When it was done printing the next class I had to clear out all of the supports with a pliers and screw driver.

What I Learned
During this process i learned how to do many things. Some of those are learning how to use the 3D printer more quickly without instructions and also how to overcome when something doesn't work in inventor. I originally put the hole on top of the whale but it was to short so i ended up putting them through the front of it.
