Accessories Idea from Siung Beach

A continuation from Short Trip to Siung Beach (+ Ideas) : I usually love to collect sands and sea shells on the shore, it's like tiny pieces of memories that I've been there. But this time its' a little different. I've found broken sea shells and think about, why don't I make this into something ? After a few days of break, here's the result of what I've made :

After I finally hand up my Applied English assignment on 23rd of October, we finally decided to go to the beach for real ! It's too sudden and unexpected that we went off at around 14 : 30 and reached there almost sunset :)

Someday in another part of the world :) Amin

While walking along the shore, its my habit to lookout for sea shells. Some broken sea shell I took to make it into accessories; ideas :)

Design Process and the Making of Lobboo ( Lobster + Bamboo ) - Product Design 3 & Applied English Language

Lobboo (Lobster + Bamboo) full perspective

Lobboo (Lobster + Bamboo) was our assignment this semester. The materials used in this product come from Cebongan. To begin with, we picked small waste bamboo cut from our bamboo chair workshop. At the same time, we have to imagine some alternative animals which have the similar hollow form with bamboo. After that, we have to make some possible sketches and at the same time figure out the technique we are going to use. Next, we have to choose one of the most qualified out of these alternative sketches.

.

 

          The lobster sketch is chosen because of its’ body characteristic which is long and divided into segments also its typical claws. Beforehand, we have to prepare  other supporting materials like match stick, tooth picks, iron wire, copper wire, supplies like wood glue, G-glue, rough and smooth sanding paper also important tools like hand drill, hand saw, pangot, pliers, cutter and scissor.

          Firstly, we have to draw the shapes we are going to cut on the bamboo piece. The drawing on bamboo component consists of head (4 pieces), body (10 pieces), tails (5 pieces), claws (8 pieces) and legs (16 pieces) of the lobster. After the drawing is done, cut the bigger bamboo piece vertically with pangot and horizontally with hand saw. We also used sanding paper to make the dynamic shape. At the same time, the legs of the lobster are done using bamboo chopsticks that have been cut.

          The bamboo component on each part is now ready to be connected and at the same time we have to prepare 1.5 mm hand drill, iron wire, copper wire, toothpicks, wood glue and G-glue. Firstly, we have to mark above and below of each components. Then, drill each mark on both sides with around 5mm depth. Secondly, apply a thin layer of wood glue on each connecting part then put iron wire or copper wire roughly to fit on both sides of the hole. After the components have stick together, apply a drop of G-glue to strengthen the durability of the connection. This method of jointing is applied from head to tails, while the jointing of the legs are using a tooth picks instead of iron or copper wire because it has the same color with bamboo and can be sanded.

Tail detail

The hinge mechanism on the claw itself is made of a hollow bamboo which has been cut with an oblique and vertically so that it has a thinner form. Next, drill on both outer part of the bamboo for iron wire to pass through and act as the hinge mechanism of the claw.

 As a conclusion, we named this bamboo product as ‘Lobboo’ (Lobster + Bamboo). It is a fun and playful home decoration with its strong bamboo characteristic. It is a reformation of wulung bamboo material with different diameters. Inspired from a sea creature lobster, we mimicked its’ body characteristic which is long and divided into segments also its typical claws. With form following material method, we make used of its’ hollow form and simplified its’ shape according to the material. Besides up-cycling the waste material, we also feature on its environmental friendly design.  With the touch of hand and love we promised you a high quality of fine finishing of our product.
