Design a Solution

Level 1 Problems 


Missing Board Game Pieces
Problem: Hi I have a number of games that are missing some important pieces, particular the game of Sorry, Checkers, and Connect 4. Our Sorry game is missing some blue players and our checker board is missing some black pieces. We would rather not purchase new games. Would it be possible for your to make the missing pieces of our games? 


Drain Protector
Problem: Hi there. My sink drain has holes in it that are too large. Water drains through, but so do little bits of food, which eventually clog my pipes! I'd like to have a thin, flexible, circular mesh item that would have a hole in the middle such that it could snap into a kitchen drain piece. My aim would be that the mesh would be open enough to allow fluid through, but tight enough to catch small particles of food.


Chess Pawn
Problem: Hi there. We have lost one of the pawns to our chess set. Would it be possible to create a replacement piece and have it printed in white? I have one you can use as a model. Thanks!

Level 2 Problems 


Key Sleeve
Problem: Hi. We are looking for small, low profile plastic “sleeves” for our door keys that will allow us to find them very quickly and easily.


Umbrella Holder
Problem: Hi there. When it's raining outside and I bring an umbrella, I always have to leave it on the floor which causes people to sometimes trip and it makes the floor all wet. Can can you design device to help solve this problem?


Guitar Pick Holder
Problem: I am looking for a guitar pick holder that can attach to the wall. Ideally I would like it to have a large opening on top to make it easy for students to drop picks into it at the end of class. It could be as simple as a box with screw holes in it. I just want it to look cool. :)


Level 3 Problems 


iPad Plug Organizers
Problem: Hi, I noticed that some students have trouble organizing the charging cables in our iPad Cart.  I was wondering if you could design a solution to help us figure out a way to organize the cables better?  Thank You!


Trinkets
Problem: Hi. We are looking for some school themed trinkets for a number of possible functions (give to visiting students and parents, give to the departing 5th grade, create a school store.) Could you design some?


Water Bottle Holder
Problem: Our problem is that our water bottles in class fall over on our desks, and when they are on the floor they always get knocked over.  Is there anything you can design that can help us solve this problem?
