Summary of project.
What I learned from this project was with inventor and 3d printing millions of things are now possible. With 3d printing you can no make it instead of ordering it or if you need a part for something you can now just print it of when ever and where ever you need it. With inventor you can save time and its now possible to make imagination into reality with a few clicks of your mouse.
