Today Jamie and Jahni made some prototypes of our product while I planned for next week.
This is a photo of our current prototypes.
What went well was we managed to finish our prototype phase and Mr. Dunn liked it.
I have also planned for next week so we can get straight into the woodwork room next week.
What didn't work well was that some of the wood we got had cracks in them so we had to throw them away.
This week will be the week that we start making the actual product. We will bring something to package our coasters in so they nice and presentable. We are hoping that nice packaging will attract customers and bring in the money. We will be selling our coasters in sets of 2 and 4.
Edit - I brought stuff to package our product, while Jamie and Jahni work on creating more product I will work on the packaging.
We have our wood now and it's sitting in the office so we can use it whenever we want.
After we get into the woodwork room we will create a prototype of our product so we can see how it turns out. For our actual product, we might add some carpet to the bottom of the coasters so the wood doesn't scratch the surface on which it's being used on.
To get this carpet my mum and I will go to the carpenter and grab whatever offcuts we can. We will glue the carpet to the bottom of the coasters.
If we aren't happy with how our prototype turns out we will keep making them until we are.
