Thesis

For this project, I'm making Thomas's sword that channels energy out of 3d printed parts.

pt1

pt3

I had to 3d print these and 3 other files but the printer either did not work or it was occupied. So far I got 3 done

This was the exact paint I used to paint the parts of the sword

I have been trying to make a diorama of the gauntlet dimension in my book. I will make it look like a book is opening up to another dimension to give it a magical feel. I am using a Guinness Book of World Records and painting it to look like an old mysterious book.

One of my conceptual precedents is the picture on the right. I took great inspiration, for I took ideas from it that I will build.

Iterations

We plan to Make a broomstick, the Marauders Map, and Harry's wand. NIKO will be making the broomstick at his house, I will make the wand, and we will both work on the Marauders map at the CCI. We choose these items because they are very important items in the book

Conceptual:

We stole the idea of a broomstick from the movie because it is his favorite hobby to do In his free time. We took the idea of the map because it is a map that shows where everyone is at Hogwarts and Harry uses this a lot. And the wand is because it would be the thing that killed Voldemort.

Technical:

We will be using the 3-D printer, the laser-cutter, paint, Niko's dad, and Cuttle

These are our first sketches

This is our template for the broomstick.

This is our parchment paper for the Marauders map. We are waiting for the ink to come for this.

And this is our prototype for the map

This is our Elder Wand Tinkercad creation

Thank you for listening



 My project is a mini figure of the main character Faolan who is a wolf. I made a background of woods to go behind my mini figure, and I made a see-through container for my mini figure.

I am planning to make a helmet. It relates to my book, Artemis Fowl because there is a magic police force called the LEP, and one of the main characters is part of it and I am making her helmet.

These are my precedents:

This is a prop from the Artemis Fowl movie. It is my conceptual precedent because it is exactly what I am trying to make.

This is my technical precedent. I am using the template it gives in the video and just not adding the front face part. I am also making it out of foam instead of cardboard.

This was (part of) my first sketch on day 1

My idea is to make a helmet out of foam, then cut and glue the foam to make it.

Day 2

I got the foam for the helmet. Now I am going to start trying to figure out how to make it. Science Bob used to do the same when making other helmets, so I am going to see if any of the CCI staff know how.

Work Day 3:

Ms.Cook sent me two links for a DIY helmet and I think I am going to use the second one, just cutting off the front part:

Work Day 4

I made the first half of the first iteration out of cardboard. I am going to start to make the other half, then make it out of foam for the final!

Work Day 5

I cut out the other half of the first iteration of the helmet

It was not really work day but I still worked on it in Middle Makers:

I finnished the other half of the prototype helmet and I am going to glue them together next time.
