This Design for Manufacturing course project focused on building a useful monitor stand while making deliberate choices around fabrication, assembly, and manufacturability. The finished stand paired an oak structure with resin-cast cable clips and a woven cotton webbing hammock, giving me hands-on experience across several very different processes rather than stopping at a CAD model.

Monitor stand in use
Finished oak monitor stand with the woven cotton webbing storage hammock installed beneath the shelf.
What I worked on
Built the oak stand through measuring, cutting, mitered joinery, sanding, assembly, fastening, and finishing after completing woodshop certification for the course.
Designed and 3D printed a cable-clip master, created a silicone mold, cast the resin clips, and post-drilled their mounting holes for final installation.
Measured, cut, wove, pinned, and machine-sewed the cotton webbing hammock as my first substantial sewing project.
