Criteria C

Child Friendly Syringe:

My first step for creating the child friendly syringe is i got a Shrek head from the internet and i tinkered it because it is too complex for me to do on my own. i then got a cylinder and re-sized it, made it white and put it under the Shrek head. i then did the same but smaller and put it under once more. i got a dome shape, i made it small so that it fits on the cylinder and made it green for the tip. i got a cylinder, made it grey and put it under the green dome and i made a hole in the needle to make it so that fluids can go in since needles have an angled tip, i got a triangular prism, made it a hole and put it at the correct angle and the grouped them. i got a cylinder, made it white then hot 4 cubes and put them at each corner to make the shape at the top then i got a disc, made it white and made it fit on top. The challenges i faced during this is that the pieces kept going in the wrong places and i couldn't control them as this was the first time i used tinkercad.

Dog Food Funnel:

When making the dog food funnel i had to get a dog bowl from the internet as i was not sure how to make a proper one in tinkercad. i Then got cylinders and resized them and put it at the edge of the bowl. i copied and pasted it two more times and placed them evenly spaced at the edges of the bowl. i then got some connectors or curved cylinders and made it fit onto the cylinder and tilted it at the correct angle and i copied and pasted it. i then cot a cone and i stretched it to the correct shape. i got a cylinder and put it at the base. i got another cone and made it a hole and put it in the existing cone and grouped it so it made an indent for the funnel. i got a cylinder and proceeded to do the same but with the cylinder. i then chose colour and grouped all of it together. The hardest part of this was probably getting the curves at the correct angle because they kept getting off the cylinder and looking weird.

Fold able Ruler:
When making the fold able ruler i had to get a cube and stretch and flatten it out, i then made it white and got a semicircle and stretched it over the middle and made it white. i got numbers and placed them on like a ruler. it wasn't big enough to make it 30 cm so for the purposes of the project i made it 12 cm. i then got the same measurements for the first one and split it in two. i made on at a 90 degree angle and put all the numbers. i then got the semi circle and put it in the same position but the end was sticking out so i got a cube, made it a hole and grouped it to make it look like it folded. The most challenging part was making the second folded one because i had to place all the numbers on an angle.

Criteria B - DEVELOPING IDEAS



Design Specification:

Syringe:


Ruler:



Anti Cheat:




Syringe Sketches




Design Justification:

I chose the first picture, the shrek one, because in my opinion little boys will be more relaxed looking at a detaile face of their favourite cartoon carachter rather than looking at a fake looking set of eyes and mouth. Also the color green lets out tranquility so the boys will be more calm looking at shrek than a set of eyes and a mouth.

Design Justification:

I chose the thinner one because if it is thick then it defy's the point of it being portable and also it will use less materials thus making it cheaper. Also it is easier to use a thin ruler rather than a thick one.

Design Justification:

I Chose picture number two because number one is just too complicated and unrealistic to build but number two is simple and useful. It is a funnel that stands up and serves so that your dog doesn't push the dog food over when you are pouring it.
