Do background research What information would we need to know? Determine the optimal size holes for flash drives so that that fit snuggly but only a small force is need to get them out.
Specify requirements It must have two holes for two glue sticks It must have a flash drive slot for the orange flash drive. It must have a place for a few extra small binder clips Optional: A place for the two screwdrivers we used A place for the three hex keys we used

Develop a Solution Each person in your group is going to use CAD (Tinkercad or Inventor) to design a solution. As a group, you will decide which one it the best, and we will 3D print one per group. Use a decision matric to decide the best, if you can agree For your notebooks, either make a quick sketch of your final design or print a picture of your cad model
Test Solution Print it.
After it is printed, evaluate it. How effective was your solution? Recommended improvements How would you optimize/redesign is you could start over? General Recommendations.
