Mini Trash Can

thingiverse

This model serves as a compact waste receptacle, designed to sit atop students' desks and maintain order.\nHow I Created This\nThe Design Process\nI began with a fundamental cylindrical shape and expanded its dimensions. Subsequently, I transformed a smaller cylinder into a hole. By combining these two elements, voila! A functional trash can was born!\nProject: Mini Waste Receptacle\nGoals\nStudents will learn essential skills in maintaining organization. The trash cans will enable students to focus on their studies, rather than frequently rising to discard waste.\nTarget Audience\nThis project is specifically tailored for grades 1 through 5.\nPreparation\nPrior knowledge of Tinkercad is assumed among participants.\nStep-by-Step Instructions\nThe idea for the mini waste receptacle struck me while I was discarding an item in a school trash can. Students will employ Tinkercad to create their own mini trash cans, personalizing each one and keeping it on their desk. This initiative aims to ensure kids remain attentive throughout lessons. Instead of frequently rising to discard waste, they can deposit it into their designated receptacles.\nOutcomes\nStudents should have designed and printed a functional mini waste receptacle, thereby cultivating habits of organization and focus.
