Brief:
Design and make a prototype for a client. The client has ideas around his preferred materials, joining processes and themed design. However it is up to you to make sure the client makes informed choices before the prototype is developed. This stakeholder feedback is required all through the manufacturing process. It may be possible to do testing and trialling first to ensure specifications are met. Justify any decisions made throughout the process to ensure fitness for purpose in the broadest sense.
