Materials List: Chair Design

Each group needs:

  • 10 meters of 18-gauge wire for each prototype (jewelry wire seems to be the least expensive, available at craft and bead stores or online)
  • My Chair Design Journal, one per student

To share with the entire class:

  • measuring tape
  • soldering iron (or wire finer than 18-gauge to secure main chair wire structure)
  • wooden artist model or floppy stuffed animal
