Cinderella Pumpkin Carriage Calender

thingiverse

This is a Solidworks created feature. It consists of many different parts that come together to form Cinderella's Pumpkin Carriage. This is a day calendar with rotating discs inserted into the pumpkin that tell the month and day of the month. There is also a index or business card holder in the shape of a little chair that attaches to the pumpkin. The back of this chair also features the iconic Cinderella glass slipper. The top of the pumpkin also comes off to allow for easy insertion of the discs that tell the month and day of the month. Holding the wheels of the pumpkin are swirls. These swirls when the wheels are attached create a cool sunburst effect with the cut-outs in the wheels. The wheels also feature a small crown to go with the Cinderella theme. The discs and pumpkin bottom feature a hole that is a little more than 3/16 of an inch wide. Into this can be inserted a dowel or skewer of 3/16 inch diameter. This acts as a mechanism for the discs to rotate upon and to keep them in the pumpkin itself. The pumpkin itself rests in a base that cradles it in a way to allow for the pumpkin to be taken out if need be. This base also has small butterflies between the areas where the swirls are inserted. The stem, in addition, is inserted into the top of the pumpkin top to give it more of a pumpkin effect. Overview and Background A model that inspired our creation The idea for the calender discs The original design plans Lesson Plan and Activity Project #4: Office Supply Storage Problem Statement: Recent analysis by the Staples finance department has concluded that sales for desktop organization products have declined in recent years. The company would like to ramp up their profits in this area by enhancing the aesthetic nature of these products. Your group of three has been hired to design a set of theme-based organizational products. Your team will design a set of office supplies that are tied together with a common theme. You must be able to justify the theme that connects the products together. The idea is that the customer will not want to buy just one; they will want to buy the whole set.

Constraints: You will be constructing an actual size model of your product in Solidworks It should be cool to look at and unique - a conversation starter. An individual walking by would do a double take to more closely examine the amazingly interesting item you’ve created. There should be a theme that ties the products together It should have multiple extrusions for detail It should contain examples of ALL THREE main features: revolve, sweep, loft It takes advantage of the following: circular pattern, linear pattern, mirror It takes advantage of at least one of the following: filleting, chamfering Each piece should fit within a 10cm x 10 cm x 10cm cube Should be 3D printable
