Surfboard Holder

thingiverse

This is a SolidWorks-generated model based on a Surfboard and functions as a flash drive holder. It consists of cut extrudes, slots, extrude bosses, and fillets. My partner and I cut-extruded four rectangular shapes through the middle of the surface. These are where the flash drives will be carried out efficiently. This object was created within dimensions of 10 by 10 by 10, fitting perfectly in the palm of your hands. It's part of a set that includes other ocean-inspired designs such as the Octopus Tape Dispenser and the Pencil Holder Sea Anemone. Overview and Background Motivation for the Surfboard Design The motivation behind this design lies in creating a functional yet aesthetically pleasing product that can hold flash drives. The idea is to make it a part of an ocean-themed set, connecting with customers on an emotional level. Sketches of Surfboards Various sketches were made to visualize the surfboard design before finalizing the shape and size. Lesson Plan and Activity Project #4: Office Supply Storage Problem Statement: Recent analysis by Staples' finance department has concluded that sales for desktop organization products have declined in recent years. The company wants to boost profits in this area by enhancing the aesthetic appeal of these products. Your task is to design a set of theme-based organizational products that will capture customers' attention and make them want to buy the whole set.
