I learned a lot from this process, including new software such as KeyShot and the Sketchbook app. I also had the opportunity to learn about rotational molding and how I needed to adapt my work to better align with its requirements and manufacturing standards.

​

I was able to test multiple ways of sliding and locking the chairs together and ultimately chose French cleats because of their low cost and ease of application. I would like to revisit this project with stronger CAD skills and a better understanding of manufacturing molds and requirements to find an innovative way to incorporate the locking system into the main body. I believe this would create a more cohesive design and be safer by eliminating exposed metal.
