Video of making the chair

Final Design



Prototype 1:1 on Xanita


All parts of the chair before assembled into the chair


FAILURES....

need to be 90 degree, achieved by v cut


the gap is to wide to roll over, need to be in curve


the heat gun technique is not really nice for this part, should be a v cut.. looks neater..


cut too deep!


the chair height is too tall, needs to reduce a little bit more.. see my feet is hanging, they aren't touching the ground.



there's a failure in the slotting part in the front.. need to rethink how to slot that part correctly

1:1 prototype

drawing & measuring the chair pattern on the cardboard.



cutting the board



put all the pieces into one chair





finish!! 

After making the prototype, I realize there are some minor faulty like the slotting line that does not have to be straight but should be in the same direction as the chair shape. That's why I should redo some part in order to produce accurate measurement for the chair.
