Lou's Shrinky Dink Holder

Description

I Was Sitting With My Son This Afternoon Watching Him Color In His Shrinky Dinks. When He Was Done, And They Were All Shrunk, He Was Having A Hard Time With The Included Paper Holders As They Either Didn'T Fit At All Or Would Fall Over. He Turned To Me And Said He Wanted To Make A Holder That Works So They All Stand Up Like They Should. He Told Me He Had A Plan... My Son Is 6 Years Old And I Said Sure Son. Let'S Go Make This Holder. He Told Me The Base Should Be Circular And Have A Slot In It For The Shrinky Dink To Sit. So We Measured A Few Of The Shrunk Shrinky Dinks And Came Up With A Good Size Base. We Then Measured The Average Depth And With Those Basics I Sat Him Down At The Computer. He Has Never Really Worked A Computer Before But I Walked Him Through Using The Mouse And Adding The Basic Shapes. About 15 Minutes Later, Walking Him Through The Software (Microsoft 3D Builder), He Had His Model. I Never Touched The Mouse Or Keyboard. I Told Him How To Save It Then He Loaded It Up Into Xyzware And Pressed Print. 15 Minutes Later He Was The Proud Owner Of His Very First Model. I Couldn'T Pry Him Away From The Printer While It Printed And The Look On His Face When It Was Done And It Worked Was Priceless. Now That'S A Fun Afternoon. I Can'T Wait To See What He Comes Up With Next
