WOODEN TOY

NAME: Wiremu TePania

Evaluation

Key Attribute 1:

A design that I,the stakeholder, likes.

Key Attribute 2:

It had to be fully functional because if it doesn’t work then it was a waste of time.

Key Attribute 3:

It has to work smoothly because if it didn’t work smoothly it wouldn’t work the way you wanted.

Development/ Final Design Drawing

I was feeling good about the final design because I thought it was the right one for my interest. When it came time to print it out on the card I couldn’t get it to encrypted his eyes and stuff so I had to stick picture of him on.

Concept Ideas

I wanted something that represents me like rugby or basketball. The decision was easy in the end because before I drew the second picture I knew I was going use the first design no matter what the other design was.

Research

When I chose the basketball design I wanted him to be doing some kind trick when he’s going for the dunk. So that’s why I chose the rotary and reciprocating motion for my design. This motion allows the toy to spin around move up and down.
