This week was pretty short as we had Monday off, gym Thursday, and a half-day Wednesday. I spent most of the week 3D printing pieces to a glove that I wanted to make into a sort-of wearable mechanical hand. I had to reprint the pieces 3 different times because the first print was too small and the second print was too big. I had to remeasure and resize the CAD models no lest then 4 times. Beside the mechanical hand, I was also trying to figure out what to do for my next project.

After some time of thinking, my Mother came to me an idea. Make a small holder for our chopsticks, which seems like a simple project. I started researching on ideas on how to even start making the Holder. After a bit of research, I decided to base the design on a pencil holder/chopstick display. I plan to start modeling it Friday.

(The Chopstick side of the design; sorry for the bad picture)
