Part A
I modeled three objects in Rhino for Part A. First was the structure vessel in New York. This was an absolute pain, but I did the best I could. I started with one of the circles and then copied and scaled it.

Second was a sword, I was hoping to get my friend to draw a sword for me so I could model it after that but I ended up just making a sword. I am not really happy with how this looks but I don’t frankly have the best idea of how a sword looks.

Last was the dodecahedron. I first was trying to by hand make each pentagon, which went poorly. Next I tried to do an array around one pentagon using another pentagon. This didn’t work either. I finally just copied each face and then copied the bottom onto the top. When I ended up unrolling this, it didn’t work and I could not figure out why, so I unfortunately had to manually unroll it. None of my other objects would unroll either using the UnrollSrf command. I don’t know what I am doing wrong frankly.

Part B
I hand cut my dodecahedron. I first forgot the tabs because they didn’t save from grasshopper. I then got the tabs from grasshopper, and printed on normal paper. I started by gluing all the sides together and this was not my best idea, but I ended up getting the dodecahedron (mostly) glued together.
Part C
I managed to get all of the 3D printed objects done before the school shut down. I did my sunglasses which was the real life model. I also printed a phone stand and a door hook.
The sunglasses I had to print a few times because I made them too small to print the lenses at first, so it just printed the nose piece and the ear pieces. I finally scaled it up, which it doesn’t look fantastic but I think with how small they are they look pretty good.
My phone holder works pretty well. It mostly works when the phone is horizontal, but it’s fantastic if you wanted to watch a movie.
This is my door hook. I think if I had made the top part a little thinner it would’ve fit with the door closing better, but I am still happy with how it turned out.
