Prototype 11


Prototype 11

In the prototype 9 we made a cast out of fiberglass and polyester. The client liked this, but would really like to use silicone because of the way this feels. In prototype 10 we tried to make a glove out of the silicone by making a mold of his hand and pouring in the silicone. This was too complicated so we decided to combine the two.

We used the principle of the fiberglass, but we decided to 3D print it. We found out that PLA can be molded when heated. This is ideal, because every person can mold it to his or her hand. 












+
–
Lot of support
Too thin
Easy to slide of the handlebar
Not enough room for silicone
Adjustable to every hand




Next steps:

Make a new, thicker and more sturdy print
Make more room for the silicone
Make a parametric slide for the handlebar, different widths
