Reorienting our parts
Since we created the cup and base parts separately, we haven’t had a chance to review our trophy design as a completed model. Let’s adjust the color of our parts and bring them together as shown in Figure 15.27:

Bringing parts together in Tinkercad allows us to prototype our designs and inspect them for any possible problems that may arise later. We can also make copies of our designs and experiment with different iterations easily, as discussed earlier in Chapter 12.
With aesthetic and novelty projects such as this trophy, the specific dimensions are often less important than the scale and overall proportions. This allows us to scale our designs to make different versions, such as a mini trophy, as shown in Figure 15.28:

However, before we move into exporting our designs for manufacturing, it’...
