SUBTRACT + PACK + TAPERED
ICETRAY PDF
MODEL 1
SUBTRACT + PACK: Triangular piece protruding could be slotted into the hole of the next module, forming a pack
TAPERED: Triangular made to be t
MODEL 2
SUBTRACT + PACK: A pack could be formed when the triangle piece at one side of the module is slotted into the triangular “mouth” (AKA hole) at the other side of another module
TAPERED: Both the protruding piece and the “mouth” were tapered
MODEL 3
SUBTRACT: The “mouth” was formed by taking away part of the model away. A rectangular hole also dug out.
PACK: Rectangular button could be slotted into the to hole at the side of another module
TAPERED: The top and bottom of the “mouth” were designed to be tapered as it extends out
FINAL MODEL – MR SHARK
Mr shark is a improvement of model 3.
Improvements made:
- Decrease overall size of model
- Flat base made in consideration of mould/ice tray making
- Button and hole carefully measured and made so modules could be slotted together perfectly

FINAL THOUGHTS
Sanding and polishing the initial model is very important. My initial model wasn’t very smooth and that affected all the models made with the latex mould… I had to polished and touch up on them before they could be used for the silicon mould.
Nok Wan, I know you’ve shown me your drawings in class but please upload your drawings again with better resolution as they are impossible to review here; as this semester is about Form and Visualization and there is equal emphasis on model-making and technical drawings, so my advice would be to leave ‘solid’ and legible record of technical drawings on OSS. I suggest you do another isometric drawing showing the arrangement of 4-6 modules for your ideal ice-tray and how they slot into one another, just as what you’ve drawn, but with more modules. Make your technical drawings bigger, sharper and have more ‘presence’, think D, SD, SO with emphasis on the important elements in your OSS layout. Your current layout makes your annotation (D) and your sketch models and drawings (SO), a bit reversed, no? Thanks.
Hi cheryl, updated with larger pictures with new drawings and with the final ice cubes!
Hurray! Nok Wan your Sharkie ice modules are looking great! Thanks for revising the drawings too… don’t forget to do up a final PDF layout including the 3 operative verbs used & showcasing the final ice Mr Sharkie.
Nok Wan, Do compile a Final PDF Layout for this assignment showing the final 4-6 ice-module configuration, 3 Operative Verbs, full set of Technical drawings (Plans, Sections, Elevations & Isometric drawings)…
