SITUATION
• It is often the case that desks become
cluttered with many pens.
• This makes the desk untidy and difficult to
work on especially if you are a ‘Product
Designer’ and you use felt pens of all different
shapes and sizes.
• It would be better if pens could be found
easily and do not lay under the design work.

BRIEF
• I will design and make a ‘Pen Holder’. The
product will be eye catching and appeal to all
ages.
• The product will be made mainly from metal.
• The product will be able to hold multiple pens
of different shapes and sizes.

Activity 1 Design Outcome
This is the
(T3A1D(1)5,6(2)1)
First activity for this you need to produce:
– a range of ideas for the ‘Pen Holder’
ALSO
– You must consider what components will be required
– You can produce your ideas on more than one sheet
SHOW ON THE LAST INITIAL IDEAS SHEET YOUR ‘FINAL
IDEA’
IMPORTANT
The ‘Pen Holder’ must be made of no less than two parts (one
must be made in metal) and include some form of
jointing used in metal work.
The sheet following gives some examples of an Initial Ideas Sheet (not for the ‘Pen Holder’!)

Activity 2
(T3A2D(2)1,2)
• This is the Second activity for this product.
• In this activity you must:
– Illustrate your sketches to show design details, including how the ‘pen
holder’ will be assembled (put together)
– Think about the information that has to be communicated and the
best way to show it (annotate your drawings)
IMPORTANT
This task will require you to communicate information on the materials
that you are using such as sizes, properties, cost, manufacturing colours
and anything else you think is relevant.

Activity 3
(T3A3D(2)1,2)
• This is the Third activity. In this activity you will:
– Create a model to support your design thinking and
decisions
– Think about what materials are best suited to manufacture
the model so that it will closely resemble your design
– Write an Evaluation of the model to say how well the
model works (see sheet after Model Making)
In this activity make your model full size,
remember you are trying to evaluate your design
by modelling a physical representation of it.

MODEL MAKING
http://www.technologystudent.com/prddes1/model1.html
TO MAKE A MODEL YOU CAN USE ALL SORTS OF MATERIALS. THE MATERIALS CHOSEN SHOULD BE SIMILAR
TO THE PROPERTIES OF THE MATERIAL YOU WILL MAKE THE PROTOTYPE FROM. THE DIMENSIONS OF THE
MODEL SHOULD NOT BE ‘MADE TO SCALE’ UNLESS THE FINAL PROTOTYPE IS VERY LARGE. IN THESE
EXAMPLES THE CHAIR IS MADE TO SCALE BUT THE SHAVER IS FULL SIZE.

Activity 4
• This is the
(T3A4(2)3,4)
Fourth activity. In this activity you will:
– Produce manufacturing plans which incorporate requirements
for tools, equipment, materials and fixings, as well as
manufacturing techniques and processes. Using what you
have learnt and thought about while making your model of
the ‘pen holder’ produce a
‘Method of Manufacture’
sheet for the making of the final prototype - look here for

Activity 5
This is the
(T3A6MM(1)2,3,4,5(2)1,2,3,4(3)2,3,4,5)
Fifth activity. In this activity you will:
– Manufacture your ‘pen holder’ prototype by:
– Choosing the best metals in terms of aesthetics, workability, practicability,
function and performance
– Using the correct tools for each task
– Making your prototype while referring closely to your working drawing
The link below will help you make decisions.

Sixth activity. In this activity you will:
– Evaluate your ‘pen holder’ prototype by:
– Evaluating your ‘Plan of Manufacture’ outlining suggestions for improvement
in terms of practicalities and efficiency
– Evaluating your ‘pen holder’ prototype in terms of the craftship and finish by
outlining suggestions for improvement
– go to this web page for a way to write an evaluation
