Title
ShrinkyKit: 3D Printing Shrinkable Adaptations for Everyday Objects
Abstract
With the development of 3D printing techniques, recreating household objects has become a trend. We present ShrinkyKit - a material-orientation method that allows novices to easily make adaptations to everyday objects with a desktop fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printer. Compared to existing methods, our method can benefit from the shrinking property of printed thermoplastic to fasten arbitrary shapes without high-fidelity manual requirements. By means of a material experiment, we construct a design tool and multiple trigger environments through a set of daily design cases, which can enable users to custom design and quickly fabricate their adaptations to reform old items or prototype assistive technologies.
