Materials' Day

Searching for Materials

- Candle and Wii-mote holder -

   

* Designing the candle and wii-mote holders

    

*Failures and Miscalculation happened a lot here




- Interview (on heart rate issue) -

*via SMS
Alexander Agung Suyono, a medical department student in Universitas Atmajaya, Jakarta, Indonesia

*live interview
Yvonne Tan, a pharmacist in Guardian, Paragon Shopping Centre, Singapore


*via chat service (on going, not yet replied)
Krishnanda Kusuma, a medical department student in Guang Xi Medical University, Nanning, China

*Sudden Help
An unknown guy from civil engineering, met in Home Fix Novena Square, gave idea on the adjustable holder by using an adjustable clamp


- A mock-up -

   

*Wii-mote bought at Funan Digital Mall
*A speaker mount to hang the wii-mote instead of speaker, bought at Home Fix the DIY store in Marina Square

   

*Tools needed
*A mock-up of the wii-mote holder

PROCESS
*Thought of using a drill to make a hole on the wood board
*The "L" shaped key, used to open up the front-part of the drill to change the "rotating cutting tip", was lost
*Helped by Andy and Stevie (Comm.D level 2 students) to make a hole using nails and hammer 
*It worked out pretty well 

- Next step -
*Building a much stronger "wall" for the wii-mote holder (thicker/ stronger wood board) so it won't break
*Building the candle holder
