My mom has access to 3D printers at her school, so I'll have to send her the link to this!
Hey, Kitty, are you gonna design anything else soon?

PPC Goodies! by

Weelll, one goodie and one Whovian thing.
But first things first!
I'm in a computer coding class at the moment, and we were charged with the task of designing a 3-D model to print out and use.
I, naturally, made a PPC Tag that can easily fit on your school bag. It has the Sunflower Official, a spork, and the words 'PPC AGENT' on it.
In other words...
If you happen to be a lucky person with a 3-D printer at school or home or work, the schematic for it is available at- https://tinkercad.com/things/0BrouWBBDrS-ppc-agent-tag
The render is much better, and you can flip it around.
And the Whovian thing! I recorded a Trock song, 'When I'm Gone' with fairly good visuals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpokZcu2mfA
...so, yeah. Hope you enjoyed!

Your design worked perfectly! I managed to print it onto a 3D printed plastic box. I've programmed it to shout "welcome to medical" when someone goes in front of it and chase them. Also, which program are you using to make models with? Also, are you using an inkline model printer (places molten material in lines) or a laser (shers of bits from a cube with a laser)?

That... that's pretty awesome. I'm always jealous of people who get to use 3D printers... still waiting for the day when they become actually affordable.
And I like the design; very neat and tidy (though I think that's more a daisy than a sunflower...). And, uh, smaller than it looks - that must only be a couple of inches! Impressive. (And I see from the render that the spork is a folding spork; nice)
So, do we get a picture of it in use? ^_~

It really isn't fair that something so cool has to be so expensive.

You should try making... by

...a big DMS flash patch. I'd bet it would make for a great cup coaster or something.
The pattern would have to be sunken into the material as opposed to raised but you get the picture. -

(Thanks to my brother- the maniac with his brand new camera- for taking photos. :-D)
