chopstick holder.

In the winter of 2017, as the culminating project in my injection molding class, I embarked on a mission to simplify the art of chopstick usage with a compact and ingenious solution: the design and machining of a chopstick holder tailored for beginners.

This innovative chopstick holder was conceived as a flat, credit card-sized device, engineered to provide practical assistance to individuals unfamiliar with traditional chopstick usage. Leveraging advanced design techniques, I crafted the holder to ensure ease of use and portability, allowing it to be conveniently carried in a wallet or pocket.

Using precision machining methods, I transformed raw materials into a finely detailed holder that seamlessly accommodated standard chopsticks, providing a stable and comfortable grip for users learning the art of chopstick manipulation.

This project exemplified my commitment to merging functionality with accessibility, offering a practical solution to a common challenge faced by chopstick novices. By simplifying the learning process, this innovative chopstick holder aimed to empower individuals to confidently enjoy Asian cuisine without hesitation or frustration.
