More Designs - and material descisions











Current Design

Several changes made so far, the back pack has become a magnetic letter mimic a more of a climbing harness. only issue is the available reference object only has a single magnet would prefer at least two making its use more practice.

Test and Source's

Pockets
- made from enlarged plastics.
- Need to find large scale printing with adequate plastic properties.
- Custom made plastic samples could be easily produced.

Magnetic Letter
- magnetic back pack
- reference has very very slight translucency, shall this be ignored (would light act in similar way at the required scale?)
-Test sprays on various materials is needed.

Straps
-Need to source real life objects as reference.
-Perhaps find 14:1 equivalent of thread, and make on straps though means of plating and weaving.
-Colour, perhaps dyed?

Watch battery
-to gain shininess, either hand made from steal or aluminium, or cast then chrome dipped.
-could be costly....
