Summary

Object History and Revision Process
The beginning roots of this project, and the incentives, had all begun with the goal of creating a Bionicle mask that could also be compatible with Lego parts. Settling on a specified set of goals/issues in need of a solution, what had followed was the creation of a few rough sketches that could give a generalized visual representation of what the final product would look like. During this, one of the main focuses was in creating a consistent theme of tubing throughout the mask, and the creation of a design had allowed me to move on to digitally designing the model, for which I used Tinkercad’s digital software. Meanwhile using Tinkercad, the entire model had been based around an axel rod on the inside of the mask that was key in making the project, as by the original intent, Lego compatible. With the wrapping up of digital design and printing the model into the real world, the product had only one, major, failure. The inside of the mask had several components sticking out that got in the way of connecting it and the axel rod, the main point of attachment, had been too short for parts to reach, which all made the possibility of the mask being compatible with Lego parts near impossible.
As a result of this failure, I addressed the issues through the brainstorming of several ideas. My chosen solution on fixing the stated issues was to empty the inside of the mask and extend the axel rod, digitally, since the specialized tools in a digital program allowed for reaching a higher level of quality and easiness in editing the model. The application of these changes unto my final 3D print had in turn made it succeed in its intended purposes of being compatible with Lego parts and working as a mask, which is where my designing process came to an end for this project.

Printing Instructions
-When preparing to print the object, you should follow specific scale measurements of 34.63 mm in height, 47.00 mm in width, and 56.00 mm in length.
-The model is a single component, therefore there should only be a single print to obtain the full product.
-Supports should be turned on for the printing of this object, and it should also be noted that the supports take near close amounts of plastic to that of the actual model.
-When removing supports, the use of knives or other possible, small, “tools” like needles would be suggested to remove supports from tiny areas.
