What is Geocaching?
Geocaching is an outdoor recreational activity, in which participants use a Global Positioning System receiver or mobile device and other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers, called "geocaches" or "caches", at specific locations marked by coordinates all over the world
In essence, it's a worldwide treasure hunt. Containers range from the size of your fingernail to the size of a caravan. Inside you'll find a piece of paper to sign and sometimes you'll find goodies to trade.
Why remix into a Geocache?
Since getting a 3D printer, I've discovered how well it complaments other hobbies such as Geocaching. I've been learning little by little how to use Tinkercad, and have been making geocaches out of other's creations! Hopefully by putting these geocaches out into the wild for others to find, it'll attract more people to the 3D printing community too!
Most of the time people find caches made from tupperware or nano caches (tiny magnetic annoying things), and love finding something a bit different.
On all of my geocache listings, I have included some brief information about 3D printing.
Info about this model
I cut a cylander from the “The Rock's Head” by masoncfrancis, then used the screw top from the “Square Base Container with PET Bottle Cap” made by Hagyma.
I plan to use this as a geocache with the hint: Rock. Hopefully seasoned Geocachers will think they're looking for a fake rock, and get a nice surprise when they find Dwayne The Rock Johnson!
Geocache ID TBC
Lessons Learned
Blender has an extremely steep learning curve however with this creation I have learned how to hollow objects using other objects
