Criteria C -Creating solutions

CRITERIA C-CREATING SOLUTIONS

Reflection                  


This is my project created on tinkercad. The basic shapes I used for my project is cylinder (x4), cone (x1), and ring (x5), square (x1), hello kitty (downloaded from internet), and butterfly (downloaded from the internet). I changed a little from my sketch. I had hello kitty and butterfly as separate ideas. However, in my final project, I added them both together since it looked very plain when I first made it only with hello kitty. This was the reason why I have both of them in my final project. I used grouping so many times since it was easier and secure when I  used one. I also changed the colours for all shapes I have used. I colour coordinated them according to my plan. The difficulties I have faced in this project was the moving the shapes and arranging them into the order I want to have it in. Since, I am not very good with computer, this was a very difficult thing for me to do. Although I did the lessons before I started this unit, it was still hard, when it came to me, doing them alone. However, I am relieved that my project was made according to my plan.

Reflection

The basic shapes I used here was red and green coloured rectangles (x1 each), jack-o-lantern (x1 downloaded from internet) and ring (x1 coloured into black) used as the strap explained in the post under 'Criteria B'. I could not group them, since they all had to be in different colours, however, I connected parts in such a way children can hang from their necks to walk around with. The challenging part of this project was the strap and the on/off button. The strap was a difficulty for me because at first, I did not plan them out completely with which shape to use for this part. After I tried with so many ways and shapes, wondering which one would be the best. After the whole process of researching and trying,  I found out that enlarging the ring shape and connecting it to the jack-o-lantern was most stable and most easiest way to do. The on/off button was also hard because I planned for something like a on/off button for common type of on/off switch for room lighting such as the one in our school. However, I did not know how these work. This was the reason why I decided to make it a press type, each time the you are turning it on or off. Thus, both red and green rectangles are next to each other, which is not something like the one I sketched in the first place, but still functions like a switch. This project was very simple, however, I could have made my drawings (sketch) a little more clearer, and detailed with which shape to use for each of the parts to make it easier for me when I am creating the actual product on tinkercad. 

Creating Car Organiser project on tinkercad 




Reflection                   

In this organiser, I used rectangles (x13), thin ring (x1), and cylinders (x2). I grouped the ones that ate the same colour with the base rectangle. I used the technique especially here cause it holds an important key in this project. The difficulty for me was making complete same sized shapes especially for the pen holders, and the three boxes on the upper side. Another trouble I had was considering the size of the shape on the size of the base. Especially with the bottom part where I had to adjust the sizes. In this part, I had to do calculations to get everything right, and fitting together.  However, for this project, I have managed to do it without much trouble because it was quite simple, with the shapes and the way of making it. The improvement I could have made was again, write the small detail in my sketch. This would make the process of creating a lot faster, but more accurate, without much of panicking, with the scale. I also thought, if I knew how to make something to cover this which would make it more like a box, so that it would make it look more realistic. However, this project was made with ease and was very simple.
