I just created [a landing page](/design) to take in some small 3d design projects and some other design work. Here's one of my past projects.

# 3D Design

This was a really awesome project because the design was non-trivial (I had to learn [bends](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hicToIPxYJI)) but I could print the part super fast so the feedback cycle kept me entertained for hours.

I designed the fix 3 times from scratch and finally settled on one that took the intricate bends of the bridge into account from the get-go.
