Wood character needed

1.material should be cheap and easy to work with2.easy to burn3.reusable, environmentally-frendly,without poisonous smoke4.easy to carry5.it should be cylindrial(a cylinder or a rectangular solid) and have the suitable size to make manufacturing easily

StackStickProjectHistory of the conception

Final outcome

We choose a piece of wood and chips from a factory far away with the following characteristics:

• 150RMB(wood and chip totally)• pine • a ractangular solid (150*150*1000)mm

• the wood is the best one we can find to satisfy the requirement mentioned above and coordinate the conflicts between different characteristics

StackStickProjectHistory of the conception

History of conception 1/2

• The main idea was to follow our • 3D model plan

• Needed tool would be a lathe with a four-jaw chuck

• On-campus workshop only provides only a three-jaw chuck• Impossible to produce the prototype in the workshop

Block of wood

Four jaw chuck

History of conception 2/2

• Factory-like workshop on campus

• Prototype was impossible to make on a lathe.

• Many different methods for prototyping – but none for wooden produtcs

• It was possible to make a mould with rapid prototyping – too costy and late delivery

Recipe

This is a dangerous production process. The product can easily catch fire.

Attention:

Don't do this at home!

StackStickProjectConception

Recipe - Material

- Take candles and smash them

- Mix it with smashed wood

- Shake it

StackStickProjectConception

Recipe – Final product

- Take two funnels, one big, one small

- Cut the smaller one as shown on the picture

- Put a little bit of material in a plastic bag. Put everything in the bigger funnel.

- Put a plastic bag on the small funnel and put it inside the big one.

Take plastic that can handle high temperature!

Recipe – Final product

- Finish fulfilling it with material and put it on a cup half filled with water.

- Put it two times 2 minutes in the microwave.

- Put it straight away in the freezer

- Repeat the same operation with a cylinder shape.

Recipe – Final product

- Stick both part together with hot wax.

Final product

• looks very easy• took several weeks of research

important factors:• exact mixture of paraffin and sawdust• time and temperature for the sintering process• time and temperature for the cool-down process

Final product

Material Cost:Paraffin: 2 YuanSawdust: 0.5 YuanAdditional Items: 0.6 Yuan

3.1 Yuan

Burning Skills• testobjects (10x10mm) could beset on fire like a candle• objects burned for at least 8:26 minutes• no additional components added• very solid and light strukture• safe handling (no explosions possible)• very cheap

StackStickProjectConception

Final product

• production in 2 separate steps

Hat + Tube

• both parts “glued” together

• finaly drilling the hole into the hat

Conclusion

MORE RESEARCH ON THE MIXTURE IS NEEDED

StackStickProjectConception

Conclusion

• Prototype burns well• Cheap• Safe

• Standarization for the mixture is needed• Different material needs to be tested• Process of manufacturing needs to be standarized

Project was a succes!

CONPRO

Future Plans:• Finalized chill-mould for perfect production• Different product sizes of the stack stick• Test run with other shapes• Collaboration with other products, i.e. one way BBQ
