3D Prototype

Taking my prototype from a previous exercise, where I had all the measurements correct, I just needed to tweak and fix some elements of the box. 

I looked further into types 
 of handle locking techniques and found one that really made my box a lot stronger.

Even though there is a lot of tape around the box, when made for the final product this will not appear. It was simple because I was adding and taking away elements of the box, to find out what fitted best and what worked best in order to make the box the strongest it could be. 

I wanted to try it with six bottles of beer in, in order to get the idea of the weight and the strength of the box, and to see if it worked. I also included the raffia so that I could get a good idea of the appearance of the box overall, and to see if it worked as a protected to the bottle.

Overall I am extremely happy with this prototype and feel confident in going forward to creating the final product. i do want to neaten up the edges, and maybe make handles more round, rather than square.
