47. This project has been very
enjoyable. We're able to make a
difference in the world. It may not
be a big change, but if each
person would pitch in we could
change the world little by little…

48. It was so much fun learning how to
do 3-D printing, I hope that
someday I will make something
extraordinary that will help people
all around the world. I will never
forget this amazing experience, I
hope that maybe you will be able
to do it too!
