Background: We are expanding our students range of ideas and prints and as we have mentioned before there are times when the students create a design and make something from the start, there are also times when we complete prints that they have located but have a purpose that in the long term we think will help with other ideas and creations.
We previously posted about a vase that when produced was 100mm high this led to it being used to a photography task involving forced perspective.
These are the full range of vases and pots from this range of prints with the example in the group that is front right, which features the handle.
Level of Difficulty: Low - the students were responsible for locating and sizing the print but not the design. Once this was completed and a physical print is shared with the students it is hope that this will be the encouragement that the students need to create their own inspired prints in this theme.
Size: The jug measures 100mm high and is 60mm wide at both the top and the bottom of the jug. This could have resized depending on the scale required for this project - these dimensions are for a mid range but obviously the miniature and potentially a full sized version could be completed.
Timeframe: In its current form the print using the regulation settings (and a standard twenty percent infill). and the print took two hours and eight minutes to complete. As noted if it was resized the print would result in a corresponding change in the print time.
What we would do differently/Next steps for the students: The idea is now to get this print in the hands of the students to think about how they might use it, and what prints or projects can come from the results of handling the object.
The print can function as a active jug as a result of the plastic and the print itself being sealed.
