Did your clock meet your initial criteria?
Size - Yes, the clock is small enough to fit in most spaces, but it is large enough to be able to see it from a distance
Function - Yes, the clock functions well, and there are no issues with how it works.
Aesthetics - Partially, the clock looks good and has met the design style, however, it is not completely finished in terms of sanding and lacquering.
Quality - No, unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to sand it down fully, so I was unable to lacquer it. Also, I was unable to fix each individual part to each other securely because of my shortage of time, so I had to glue each piece together.
Materials - Yes, I have used the materials that I am allowed to use.
Time - Partially, I completed and submitted the clock and this folio on time, however, I was unable to completely finish my clock to perfection.
Positive/negative (likes/dislikes)
Positive:
It is aesthetically pleasing
I have met the design style of my choosing
It functions properly and there are no issues stopping the clock from working
I am happy that I was able to make the clock how I designed it on Onshape and how I sketched it.
Negative:
I could not finish the clock completely because I didn't have enough time.
There were a few gaps where I got the angle slightly wrong so I had to fill them with wood filler.
How would you improve your clock design?
I would improve my clock design by making it more simple so that I could finish absolutely everything on time. I would also use a different wood instead of the dark wood because it was very tough to cut so it was harder for me to finish.
What would you change, Why?
I would change the type of wood that I used because it was very hard to cut, and I would try to manage my time better. By doing these things, I might have been able to make more progress on the clock. I also would have printed a to-scale version of the clock on paper and cut each piece out and stuck it on the wood so that I could cut and mark the wood with ease and much faster. I also would have made it so that the angles were much easier to get right, by making lots of similar shapes with integers for angles rather than heaps of decimal points.
