She calls it the soda can planter, and I love it. She made it in tinkercad and I helped her print it with recycled PLA.
EDIT: Not sure why the image didn't upload the first time, I'll try again.
In between life, we garden.

I bought a few spools from a company called printerior. It appears they recycle pla and other types and make it into filament. I have a box of my waste pla I'm about to send to them, just don't have enough yet to justify it.
So far their filament is fine to work with, a tad stringy, but nothing major.
Cool. How old was your kid when they could start using the design program well? It never occurred to me in all the years I've known about and decided I didn't want a 3d printer that I could make stuff with the kids.
I'd say the creativity was there around 7 or so where she could start to make things. She still needs my help to make them printable and sometimes to figure out the geometry/math.
