BETA PROCESS

  • ISSUES WITH ORIGINAL

    • Too large, should be handheld size

    • Button Details askew

    • Missing star-shaped button

    • Wanted to do further design explorations to simplify design and ease of use

  • Button/Switch/Battery Tolerances

    These photos show my printing trials. I experimented with new battery holder designs and heat-set inserts.

  • CHANGING PLACEMENT

    I attempted to improve the inner organization of the wand

  • SCALE COMPARISON

    My second iteration was much smaller and closer in size to the original design.

  • ASSEMBLY

    During this part of the process, my home was undergoing renovations and I had limited access to space and tools. Here’s a photo of my clamp setup - though it is crooked, I was able to fix it before the glue set!

  • LIGHT STUDY

    In order to improve light dispersion, I tried sanding the LED, changing placements within the wand, and experimenting with mini flashlights.
