I'm progressing pretty well with my project. I've explored several design possibilities and decided on the one which I'm going to develop further. My next stage is a bit of prototyping, I need to make a rough mock up of my design to check for any usability issues and I need to trial one of my packaging ideas to see if it is feasible. I will then be able to refine my ideas into my final design.

It's all clicking into place!

I'm quite pleased with my progress so far. I've explored a few different ideas and decided which avenue I'm going to explore further (see 'Initial Ideas'). I've also developed my drawing and rendering skills.

I've got to grips with the blogger and I've even managed to learn a bit on Photoshop (see 'Getting to grips with Creo').

I like the idea of the blog as it makes me put my ideas down on paper (or screen, as the case may be) rather than jumping ahead.

My first time blogging

Well this is my first time blogging....yet another piece of software to get used to! At the moment you'll probably find lots of empty pages and random things appearing on here but hopefully over the next few days I'll get to grips with it and start publishing some of the work I've been doing. To be honest I'm more worried about the blog than the CAD/CAM....

Please feel free to add comments once I get some actual work on here and I'll give you my thoughts if you want them.

Now lets see what happens when I press Publish....
