BLOCK PUZZLE REFLECTION

This is the histogram for the time it took for people to solve my puzzle. This data was difficult for me to compile because no one solved the puzzle, even if it was over the fifteen minute limit.











Reflection: 

Modeling your ideas with techniques like multi-view sketches, and isometric drawings is
very important when making a prototype. To make a final design, brainstorming sketching and modeling are essential to make the prototype the best it can be. Without modeling your design, mistakes can be made in the building process and in the end your design might not be in the best form. For example, in this puzzle project one of the fundamental steps was to make all the different combinations of a five cube piece. This modeling helped us to build a challenging puzzle that could be the most fun for high school students. Without drawing multi-view and cake layer sketches we could have made mistakes in the building process.
 I love how my puzzle is very difficult and that the interlocking pieces make it very hard to solve for most people. I like seeing people working on my puzzle and having fun trying to figure out how to solve it.
I might have changed my puzzle by gluing it better because on some blocks it wasn't perfect and I had to sand it down a lot.

Here are my multi-view sketches from Inventor:
