For this project we had to make a very commonly used product that seems like it would be simple to design and make; a tape dispenser. Except the only materials we were allowed to used to make it were two metal clothing hangers, tape or glue and whatever we wanted to use for the cutting edge. I liked this project because it seems so simple when you are explaining it to someone but it was actually difficult. You want to make the person's life who is using it easier, so they should not struggle to get the tape. You also had to be careful when making it because you also want to make the product safe, since you are using metal hangers you want to watch for any sharp edges. That was one downfall of my tape dispenser, I left a sharp pointy edge on my final design and that could hurt the person using it... all things you want to be aware of. Things that I learned from this project are that you need to always keep going if you mess up and learn from your mistakes. I could have gotten a better grade on this project then I did and the reason I didn't is because my product wasn't safe and I learned from this mistake!
