Cartesian Plane Diagram

thingiverse

After consulting some math teachers, they told me that teaching the cartesian plane is difficult to do with all three axes. A whiteboard or chalkboard cannot show the Z axis. This model can show all three and be drawn on by a dry erase marker to demonstrate the three dimensional world. This can also teach students about their MakerBot and how to design accordingly. Instructions Place the "miracle.json" in the directory: C:\Users(username)\My Things\Profiles\Cartesian Plane The folder called "Cartesian Plane" may not already be there so just create a new folder. Print "Cartesian Plane Face" twice using the MakerWare slicing profile provided. Simply slide the two together at the notch. Print "3 Axis Corner" once with the same slicing profile to use as a moveable Z-axis. Natural PLA is recommended however any translucent filament should work.
