20. MRHS Found Metal Recycling Design Brief Page 2 Objective: Learn how to safely use tools and materials while Designing. Engineering, and Creating found metal products that will help you learn about metal working while learning about metal properties, processes, and SAFETY! while filling a request from your Client. Engineering Constraints 1. You need to build a small desk or wall Sculpture for a Client*. 2. You may consult your Client or you may detect interests/hobbies/favorite things and then design/build a product. 3. You must give your Client this final product as a gift (You may design one for yourself to complete the 11 processes). 4. The found metal products must be: a. Made of recycled metal (magnetic if you need to weld parts) and other materials for decoration including wood, paper, cloth, and plastic. You could use AC or DC electricity (SAFELY!) to shed light, move things, or tell time. b. Representative of some real object. c. Able to fit in a shipping box 4 ¾” x 9” x 13”. d. Made using at least eleven (11) metal working processes minimum. e. Safe for a 4-year-old to touch. f. Completed by _________________. 5. You may “Cohort” but each student must build her/his own product(s). 6. No explosives, chemical reactions, fire, gerbils, life-threatening devises, or items illegal in the state of Massachusetts may be used. No animals shall be harmed in this experience!! 7. Compare with your final sketch then complete the Engineering Design Packet

23. 8th Grade Design Brief MVMS Mechanical Marvels Mission Goal • Engineer & Manufacture your project with these goals in mind! • Brainstorm with your cohort… • Research the whole idea of creating products out of wood. Look in at least • three (3) sources. Cite them! • Tryout three (3) ideas as Thumbnail sketches. • Pick a final design. • Create a scaled “Blueprint” or final plan. • Layout your idea on your material. • CAREFULLY separate the materials with cutting tools. Leave the lines showing. • Smooth the parts. • Assemble your project. • Decorate and finish. • Evaluate & Improve. • Think about your efforts using the Reflection Rubric. • Evaluate your project with your teacher. INPUT PROCESS OUTPUT FEEDBACK Good Luck!

24. Constraints: • The product: • Must be safe for a 4-year-old to touch. • Some parts must move as part of it’s “mechanical • marvelousness” but must not break off. • No parts may cause a choking hazard. • You may “Cohort” but each student must build her/his own product. • Product must fit into a closed shoebox for shipping! • Products can be made of materials including wood, paper, • cloth, metal, and plastic.
