Reflection
Overall I think that this project was fairly successful. There were certainly some problems along the way but the end product was very well received by the judges. The inventor design caused some issues with the original plan of getting the bottle injection molded but the 3 D printed and stainless steel versions were a very good representation of the function of the bottle itself. One of the biggest parts of this project for me was communication with industry sponsors as well as trying to to keep up while being absent for so long. I think I learned a lot about the importance of following a process and reacting to unexpected setbacks when on a time limit.
