So for these two projects I made a book. I chose a book because I like reading and the purpose of the project was to make something that could be considered a talisman of sorts that is part of our lives. Some of my most prized objects are my books and being an English Literature major I have a lot of them. I would want to save some of my books if they were burning in a building. Books are important to society also, because they hold knowledge and everybody loves a good story.
Some problems I had with GoogleSketch Up, It was hard to move some of the pieces around and there were certain things that it wouldn't let you do, like make something taller.
