I would like to 3d design some kind of boat and then print it and refine and add other parts to make it water-worthy. I expect it to be less than 6 by 4 by 6 inches.
1. I am interested in doing this because I want to see
a) how plastic works in relation to floating and hydrodynamics as well as which shapes of hulls without the benefit of something like a keel are the most stable yet have the least drag possible.
2. Research on the specifics of the hulls of boats will be required to some degree but at the same time small scale models for experimentation would work better in terms of first hand knowledge in the scenario that I create.
3. Nothing but TinkerCAD and the printer!
