Goal:       
Design a 3D-printable object with built-in flexibility that allows components to securely snap together without additional hardware.
  Approach:       
Used SolidWorks to explore geometries that enable controlled deformation, focusing on how form could create flexibility within rigid materials.
  Key Considerations:       
  • Material limitations of 3D printing
  • Tolerances for a secure yet functional fit
  • Structural integrity under repeated use





    •
      Outcome:           

    Developed a snap-fit design that balances flexibility and strength, while gaining a deeper understanding of designing for manufacturability and real-world use.
