a thought

so i've decided to adopt another direction that would allow me to explore other avenues of concept and function and that is movie props. or just super clean models i guess. maybe squibs- we'll see how it pans out.

third batch










here's some joint tension markups for each piece that i've been taking into consideration for my final- all materials will be printed and bound including my concept work.

second batch










these would be the three in use photos for my different models of the clamp on miter box (and yes that is a special saw shaped like a T-square).

first batch of deliverables










k so this is basically the middle of fabrication of my three miter boxes even though the project was supposed to be remodeling a saw, i found the miter box to be a greater challenge than initially anticipated.

more to come.

work





























Some work from product sketching i was lucky enough to get displayed at school and used for some marketing catalog- nothing too exciting, the concept is a utility athletics shoe that could be taken apart to replace worn components rather than chucking the whole thing in the garbage. Ergonomics played a factor in its concept though we weren't pushed too hard to ensure its effectiveness (for this class anyways), parts include, laces, toe cup, heel/arch support, inner sole, outer sole, tongue; each part would ideally be custom made pending on the demands of activity- even cleats could be added in place of special screws in soles.
