In-class progress Week 4

During class in Week 4 I changed the way i went about setting up the non-cylindrical bottle lid.

Instead of having the open/closed movement in the assembly I created different parts for open and closed configurations. 

Showing different parts for open and closed.

I then brought both of these into an assembly with the bottle body and created open and closed configurations.

I then started to think about my Customised Bottle design.

I think that this bottle design is too busy, with too many pointless features like the finger grips - these don't actually make it easier to hold. 

With this in mind I decided to create a more minimalist and elegant bottle.
