5UP Pencil Sharpener (SVG)

FlightsofIdeas — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 14:39:41 GMT

Published in Wired Magazine 17.01 This is a design that I put together for PonokoID ponoko.com/ponoko-id. I came up with the design based on the requirements for a Wired Magazine article. It's a fun and simple design that can be made with a few odds and ends from the local hardware store. I really want to see someone come up with a 5UP design that looks like 5 health bars out of a computer game. Enjoy. The design is free of charge. You can use it on the proviso that you share a small part of your personal expertise in the education of others. You can do this in any way that you wish and your contribution need only be small. If you’re a busy person then you can always contribute to a charity like The Fred Hollows Foundation http://www.hollows.org. For the Wired Article online, see http://www.wired.com/culture/design/multimedia/2008/12/pl_create Toss Your Most Brilliant Product Ideas Into Ponoko.com's Fishbowl By Sonia Zjawinski ... "What We Wanted A pencil holder that doubles as a sharpener. What We Got Frosted acrylic guides channel the pencils into store-bought sharpeners. A handle provides leverage, and the rear panel can be removed for cleaning out the shavings." ... Instructions I've put all of the objects into the one SVG file, although you may want to cut the body and guides out of different materials, as shown in the photographs. The box base should be cut from 6mm material. The pencil guides can be any thickness. The original SketchUp file that I created can be downloaded from Thingiverse http://www.thingiverse.com. You can modify it and then use my "SketchUp SVG Outline Plugin" http://code.google.com/p/sketchup-svg-outline-plugin/ to create different SVG files. See my Instructables http://www.instructables.com/member/flightsofideas/ for more information. The design fits 10x5mm (0.6x0.4in) single hole sharpeners and 6mm (1/4in) threaded rod. There are holes to allow 2M screws which give it a steampunk-ish look. You will also need a handle (you may need to change the spacing and diameter of the screw holes). A cabinet magnet can also be used to keep the rear panel firmly in place. To assemble, glue the box together with PVA or another clear-drying glue. If using ply for the base, simply drive the screws in by hand. If using something like acrylic you will have to pre-drill and perhaps tap holes into perpendicular edges. Use epoxy to glue the sharpeners in place. You may also want to modify the design to include a channel for shavings if the sharpening blade does not sufficiently clear the 6mm material. You can also attach the cabinet magnet (optional) at this stage to the rear panel. Once dry, use the threaded rod to fasten the guides into place. Use nuts and washers to sandwich the guides and the top panel of the box. Add dome nuts to the tops of the threaded rods. To get the threaded rod to the length that I wanted, I simply used a Dremel to cut a single 2ft piece into 6 segments. Attach a nice handle to the box, add pencils, and start sharpening.

Zen lantern

SquirrelswithHammers — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 22:18:04 GMT

A single-box zen lantern. The patterns on the sides of the box work in such a way that, although different, they seamlessly join on all edges, and, in fact, you can stack multiple boxes together for a more dramatic arrangement. It looks great at night with a light inside. Not suitable for a candle as it is fully enclosed, but perfect for a no-heat flickering LED substitute - or a very low watt bulb if you are electrically inclined. This one is made from 3mm MDF and japanese rice paper and the finished cude is almost 12cm or 4.5 inches tall.

Directives: Work Desk

carladiana — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 03:34:05 GMT

• made to order • exists only digitally until ordered • manufacture as locally as possible • ships flat • press fit assembly • cutouts cast shadows Directives integrate language and poetry into the everyday environment, emphasizing the idea of design as authorship. Each piece is created around a concise statement to serve as a personal, daily reminder. Included in the line is a stool ("rest"), a desk ("work") and a mirror ("reflect"). Their manufacturing process is highly efficient because they exist only as digital files until ordered, and then are manufactured and shipped locally. Once an order is in place, it is manufactured and shipped from a facility that is local to the customer. They are flat packed and assembled by the user using only a mallet. Every part is lasercut from flat materials. The dark, burnt edges, a natural result of the laser cutting process, are showcased as a graphical element that frames the form. The hollow cutout of the letterforms allows light to shine through and cast a shadow of the word on a nearby surface.
