RESEARCH ABSTRACT: -
CHALLENGE: Through 3D printing technology, I felt that I finally transcended limitation in being able to materialize all the shapes I want, but then I realized there was another challenge: making a mechanism for bracelets. I assumed that just making a simple mechanism for bracelets would be the easiest task. I was totally wrong. It turned out that it was the most complicated part. Before making it, all the errors needed to be calculated. Just 0.3mm error was enough to ruin the whole thing. It was hard to anticipate without experience.
