This project was submitted for the Spring 2019 3D Printing and Design Competition. Participants were asked to respond to the following prompt: “We want to know how you created your project, what inspired you, what you learned along the way, and where it might lead you. In short we want you to tell us the story behind the project and reflect on the process.” Response: My Chem 314 class has been recreating some of the original rock salt models made by the students of professor Moyer. These models help us visualize the tetrahedral and octahedral holes found in the crystal lattice structures for some common rock salts. Our model in…

Participants were asked to respond to the following prompt: “We want to know how you created your project, what inspired you, what you learned along the way, and where it might lead you. In short we want you to tell us the story behind the project and reflect on the process.” Response: I made a blue keychain with my initials. The first thing I made on Sketchup was a keychain, but it ended up not working out. After this, I made a bigger object for my rhetoric class. It turned out well and it was fun to…

Participants were asked to respond to the following prompt: “We want to know how you created your project, what inspired you, what you learned along the way, and where it might lead you. In short we want you to tell us the story behind the project and reflect on the process.” Response: This product was a part of our inorganic chemistry course. Using 3D printing we were able to compose the structure of rock salt (NaCl) something that most people are familiar with. This project allowed for the understanding and break down of the rock salt structure…

Participants were asked to respond to the following prompt: “We want to know how you created your project, what inspired you, what you learned along the way, and where it might lead you. In short we want you to tell us the story behind the project and reflect on the process.” Response: In a display case, on the second floor of the Clement Chemistry Building at Trinity College, are a number of hand-made models of ionic compounds. Ionic compounds form crystals, which consist of many alternating positive and negative ions bonded together in a matrix. These original…
