For Practical 4, we were tasked with creating a game that can be played by kids using cardboard and the different joinery types we learnt in P3. Before the lesson, the group came together to brainstorm and narrow down to the game that we wanted to do for practical 4. After a long discussion, we decided to make a foosball table as it is a basic but popular game among kids. We made some simple sketches to allow us to visualise the foosball table so that we can have a better understanding of our product. This saved the group time as we could immediately start once we were at the FABLAB and we could make full use of the time to craft our foosball table. Figure 1: Preliminary Sketches of Foosball Table by Kieran and Anwar In order to make the foosball table, there are two main parts. The first part was the "arena", or the table itself, and the second part was the "operators", or soccer players. For the first part, we did not face any issues as it was relatively easy to c...

During the Week 14 lesson, we learnt more about product sketches. It is important for us to learn more about product sketches and drawing as it is an essential for creative expression in product design and development. It is considered by many to be the principal approach where product designers externalise a product’s design concepts. By having a design drawing, we are able to visualise our concepts better and have a better understanding of our product. For the first task, we were tasked with sketching a straight line by drawing 2 different points that are approximately 15cm apart. We placed our pen on the first point and focused on drawing a line to connect to the second point in a single stroke without moving our wrist. Figure 1: Straight lines For the next task, we had to sketch curves. Firstly, we drew 3 points about 10cm apart from each other. We placed the pen on the first point and focused on connecting it to the second and third point with a single stroke. Figure 2: Curves Aft...
