A Sentient Spacecraft Enclosure for Amazon Alexa Echo Dot

thingiverse

I've been using Tinkercad as my primary design software for creating objects for 3D printing for a few months now. Along the way, I've been wanting to design something different from the usual forms composed of basic shapes such as Squares and Circles from the Tinkercad Basic Shapes collection. This led me to a few videos on YouTube about creating "Organic Shapes". As the first shot, I decided to create a simple enclosure for my Amazon Alexa/Echo Dot sitting in my living room looking quiet plain. Back in the 80s, I had watched a movie named the "Flight of the Navigator". From bleak memories of that movie and the fact that Echo Dot is sort of an A.I. system, I decided to design an enclosure that resembled a Sentient Spacecraft.
