  Refined shape and recorded measurements, using illustration. Time to build shape using Rhino. 

I got a shaping foam and made 2 shapes as an option.

Project 2 prompt As an extension of the previous project and in line with Project 2's objective of designing something that is mass-produced, I would like to re-design my multi-sensory fidget device, Bubblin. It fits with this project because 3D fabrication files that can be used with 3D printers are reproducible. This design aims to help many people who need some isolation from bothersome elements in their lives by providing a personal portable item so it has to be reproducible. Why redesign? The old design I made is not unique, and it has little potential to attract market attention and appeal to the audience. The second reason is that since the Bubblin device is supposed to calm and comfort to people's minds, ergonomic design could contribute to that goal. Plans Build a shape that feels comfortable in hands with clay. Decide its size as well. Take photos of the clay from the top, left, right, bottom, front, and back, and record its size as well. I will bring the photos to Rh...
