For my specific field of interest I chose toy manufacturing. To show that I have learned how to make a toy, I will take the following steps.
1) Google the design of toys and their manufacturing process
2) Interview people who can already do this, and with this information, gather supplies and knowledge
3) Practice making toy designs using the information I have compiled; prototype
4) Take prototype to be printed
5)Mess up/Learn from mistakes
6)Create second prototype using lesson learned from previous step
7)MAKE TOY
For Step 1, I will use Google to research different process as well as Youtube to find out more about toy manufacturing.
For Step 2, I will use the Maker MeetUp service to find individuals whose minds I can probe about the subject
For Steps 3 and 6, I will use SketchUp to make my initial designs
For Step 4, I will either use the printers here or at the iMakr store in the LES
