For
this project the BDS 102 students we to pick an object that meant something to
us. It had to be pretty small and connect to us somehow. It could symbolize a
memory or be literal but it had to connect to us and be of some importance.
After we picked our object our next step was to think about how we would place
that object in a vessel. We were supposed to think about how it would lay or
stand in a box or in a bowl/container.
The vessel was not to be too big.
There was a size restriction on it. The box could not be any bigger than eight
inches in height, length, or width because the tools we were using could not go
any higher than that. Also, our object was supposed to be fairly small so that
size would be too big anyway.
After we decided on an object, we
were to sketch and build prototypes along with doing mind-maps that would help
us decide on a shape for our vessel. Once we had prototypes ready and done and
we had decided on a specific box, our next step was to get the precise
measurements for the box and get the wood we would make it out of.
After we purchased the wood, we were
to use the ban saw, wood glue, and carpet tape to build our vessel. Once we had
it built and glued together our next step was to document everything we did
with photos and finish the box by sanding it down and making it look perfect.
