Rolling Coin Sorter
I made this easy and cool sorter for coins for a school project. It is very easy to 3d print and works with United States coins( Quarter, Dime, Nickel, and penny). I go to the Cold spring harbor high school in long island NY.
I thought this would be a fun way for me to store all of my extra coins and have them sorted out for when I need to use them.
Supplies
You will need a 3d printer and a computer with fusion 360.

Final Step Sketch and Extrude Coin Slots.
