Outside the Box

Today we had three breakthroughs, one about swivel hinges, one about track systems, and one about size.  Each of the members came up with one mine was the swivel, Fletcher’s was about a double track system and Landon came up with a size fixture that would be benefiting the customers writing space.  The new swivel system is like the one in a picture frame and it would hold the laptop to the desk.  The size reduction made the desk space increase by 5 inches.  With the new double track system there is more motion range and there is a video of it on Fletchers blog.  In today’s work we drew on a white board and had a brain dump session pouring out ideas about the desk extender.  After today we will begin the final picture of the project.  I had a good idea about a material list that included PVC pipe and particle board, but I forgot to research prices.  We were able to find prices on some items and they were all under 10 dollars.  The desk will be of the desk by 8 inches.  Next time we will work on the clamp system and a final picture.
