Today is the last day. We finished the whole project and presented the glove to Diego and his mother. We had this feedback:

-Quite hard to take in and out

-Not ideal position of the fork

-You need your own fork

As on the project part:

-We should have made more snap-fit prototypes (Velcro,...) because of the needed strength to open

We did the final test of the project:

-Yeji finished sewing the final version of the glove

-Maxence made a couple more uncessful amelioration for the snap-fit system since we needed it to be easier to use since it was too hard to open

-Celenn and Inyoung were fork shopping and bought very cute (now decapitated) bunny dessert fork. This was necessary because we needed a fork small and light enough to be easy to use while still being resistant and reusable, so we needed to find small inox forks

-Then Celenn cut Miffy's head and Inyoung filled a bill report

Inyoung was absent today, however we were able to test the newly printed prototype for the snap-fit. It worked and was resistant enough, however, we found it was too hard to open it with one hand so we decided to add a cone inside of the base to make it more natural to slide off. We are almost done with this part.

As for the sewing of the glove, we decided which one to keep as our final prototype and Yeji started to sew the final version with a more comfortable fabric and small adjustments regarding the length of the thumb and the other finger holes. We were thinking about adding some form of decoration part on the straps that will hold the snap-fit in order to respect Diego's wish for something aesthetic.

Maxence did a new handle and snap-fit that is both thinner and longer to print for next session, Celenn and Yeji worked on other drafts for the glove, Inyoung worked on a model of the fork in order to print in for the next session

Celenn did a new prototype, a new person joined (Yeji), the snap fit Maxence did was a failure (quite heartbreaking), Inyoung and Maxence began to do a fork 3D model to test the snap fit inside fusion or the other application. The snap fit will be made bigger, will be more resistant around the edge since too thin (by making the rectangle hole inside slightly smaller), the handle is too short, the hole handle needs to be made bigger, the handle need to be empty, the bit up the handle need to be slightly smaller, overall, it broke in 3 sec. As for the sewing prototype, we finally have the right pattern. We’ll make a better prototype next week.

Celenn did a glove prototype. The snapfit base is finished, we did 2 handle prototypes that can goes inside the snapfit, we will try them during the next lesson to see which one is the most comfortable to use, but also to see if they resist well, after that we'll make a hole inside the handle to insert a fork, to make it easier to wash, but also usable with more objects if possible, or if there is a problem, we will change a part of the design.

We continued working on the different part that we each had to do, some more prototypes were made for the snap fit, we think we are going to go with the 3^rd design (see the screenshot of fusion), which was inspired by a snap fit buckle (see example of the inspiration), the creation of the gloves has also began (take a look at the photo), we now have to do a fork that will fit the snap fit, our idea would be to make a 7cm fork, including its handle, which would correspond to the snap fit created, we will see if it works, but it might not be resistant enough. The way the fork would be put inside the snap fit, would be to put the fork in an adaptative handle that can be put in and out of the snap fit. 

Diego was present during the class. 

We discussed the project together to make sure we didn't forget anything.

Still working on multi-adaptor glove, more specifically for fork and jumping rope.

 Diego seems optimistic about our project, the idea pleased him, and he liked the way the fork is positioned, he seems happy about the fact that it could be used for both the fork and jumping rope, he never wore a glove like the one we want to do, so we need to try that out. For now we are going to try making a prototype using the prolonges snap fit.

 For next class, we should all prepare:

Snap fit - Maxance

Band (glove) - Celenn

The fork – In Young

• Until the next class and we should complete our first prototype

Still working on multi-adaptor especially on fork and jumping rope.
