Bottle Design


For this assignment, we used vacuum forming to create a bottle.


First, I got two blocks of balsa wood and clamped it together over night with wood glue.



Then I used a lathe to create that bottle shape.


After an hour, this is what've I got.



Then I got a sheet of PETG and vacuum formed it. 

                  

Then, I stated on designing on how my bottle will look like.




I cut the excess plastics off and sanded the edges. I then glued the two pieces together using acrylic solvent. I then pour black paint into the bottle and shook it to perserve the glossy feel on the outside.
