To keep memories and relics from adventures past and to remind myself to never stop exploring.

Challenges

Carving my pattern by hand wasn’t producing the results I desired. I switched to the Shopbot and realized the importance of respecting the manufacturing process and choosing the right tool for the job. I also learned that good designers are not hindered by their mistakes, but rather figure out ways to embrace them.
