For my Passion project, I decided to do something I am passionate about, Lacrosse. I have played Lacrosse for years, so I only thought it was fitting for me to make my own Lacrosse head.
You might be asking, “What is a Lacrosse Head”, well I have the answer for you! A Lacrosse head (Pictured Above) is the top of the lacrosse stick where the ball goes while a player has it. The head allows you to Pass, Shoot and Hold onto the ball. A lacrosse head has ‘mesh’ strung onto the head, which stops the ball from falling out the bottom.
Another question you might have is how am I going to make my own lacrosse head, the Answer to that is, a 3D printer. As a member of the STEAM program, I have access to all the tools in the drafting room, including the 3D printer. I will be using AutoDesk Inventor to make my 3D model of the lacrosse head, then the file will be sent to another program, Cura, to connect to the printer and make my design a reality.
