SITUATION

• It is often the case that desks become cluttered with many pens.

• This makes the desk untidy and difficult to work on especially if you are a ‘Product Designer’ and you use felt pens of all different shapes and sizes.

• It would be better if pens could be found easily and do not lay under the design work.


4

BRIEF

• I will design and make a ‘Pen Holder’. The product will be eye catching and appeal to all ages.

• The product will be made mainly from metal.• The product will be able to hold multiple pens

of different shapes and sizes.


5

SPECIFICATIONFunction/Performance• Must hold many pens• Must hold pens of different shapes and sizes• The pens must be easily placed and removed from the productMaterials• Must be made mostly from METAL• Must be made of at least two parts joined mechanically• Must be recyclable• Must be inexpensiveAesthetics• Must be good to look at • Materials to be used must add quality and decorationProduction Processes/Manufacturing• Must be made accurately and be well finished• Must be made using the correct metal working techniquesSafety• Must be safe for all especially young children• Must be robust (should not fall apart or have small fiddly bits)• Must be stable when full of pens

Activity 1 Design Outcome (T3A1D(1)5,6(2)1)

This is the First activity for this you need to produce:

– a range of ideas for the ‘Pen Holder’ ALSO– You must consider what components will be required– You can produce your ideas on more than one sheet

SHOW ON THE LAST INITIAL IDEAS SHEET YOUR ‘FINAL IDEA’IMPORTANT

The ‘Pen Holder’ must be made of no less than two parts (one must be made in metal) and include some form of

jointing used in metal work.

The sheet following gives some examples of an Initial Ideas Sheet (not for the ‘Pen Holder’!)Success Guide – Craft and Design ‘Image Boards and Initial Ideas’ Pages 18-19

Activity 2 (T3A2D(2)1,2)

• This is the Second activity for this product.• In this activity you must:

– Illustrate your sketches to show design details, including how the ‘pen holder’ will be assembled (put together)

– Think about the information that has to be communicated and the best way to show it (annotate your drawings)

IMPORTANTThis task will require you to communicate information on the materials that you are using such as sizes, properties, cost, manufacturing colours and anything else you think is relevant.

Activity 3 (T3A3D(2)1,2)

• This is the Third activity. In this activity you will:– Create a model to support your design thinking and decisions– Think about what materials are best suited to manufacture

the model so that it will closely resemble your design– Write an Evaluation of the model to say how well the model

works (see sheet after Model Making)

In this activity make your model full size, remember you are trying to evaluate your design by modelling a physical representation of it.


19

MODEL MAKINGhttp://www.technologystudent.com/prddes1/model1.html

TO MAKE A MODEL YOU CAN USE ALL SORTS OF MATERIALS. THE MATERIALS CHOSEN SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO THE PROPERTIES OF THE MATERIAL YOU WILL MAKE THE PROTOTYPE FROM. THE DIMENSIONS OF THE MODEL SHOULD NOT BE ‘MADE TO SCALE’ UNLESS THE FINAL PROTOTYPE IS VERY LARGE. IN THESE EXAMPLES THE CHAIR IS MADE TO SCALE BUT THE SHAVER IS FULL SIZE.

Activity 4 (T3A4(2)3,4)

• This is the Fourth activity. In this activity you will:– Produce manufacturing plans which incorporate requirements for

tools, equipment, materials and fixings, as well as manufacturing techniques and processes. Using what you have learnt and thought about while making your model of the ‘pen holder’ produce a

‘Method of Manufacture’ sheet for the making of the final prototype - look here for information

Activity 5 (T3A6MM(1)2,3,4,5(2)1,2,3,4(3)2,3,4,5)

This is the Fifth activity. In this activity you will:

– Manufacture your ‘pen holder’ prototype by:– Choosing the best metals in terms of aesthetics, workability, practicability,

function and performance– Using the correct tools for each task – Making your prototype while referring closely to your working drawingThe link below will help you make decisions.

25

Activity 6 (T3A5MM(1)(4)1,2)

This is the Sixth activity. In this activity you will:

– Evaluate your ‘pen holder’ prototype by:– Evaluating your ‘Plan of Manufacture’ outlining suggestions for improvement

in terms of practicalities and efficiency– Evaluating your ‘pen holder’ prototype in terms of the craftship and finish by

outlining suggestions for improvement– go to this web page for a way to write an evaluation http://www.technologystudent.com/designpro/eval1.htm

You will need to produce at least one sheet of work
