Various projects from school, internships, and free time
If you love your paint brushes, these are a fantastic upgrade to their old cardboard covers. They are designed to print cleanly with minimal supports, fit several common brush sizes, and snap securely to protect your prized Purdys.
The main reason to own a 3D printer is to make random, niche products that you could never find on the market…right? Here are some of my personal designs that I made to justify my hobby:
Filament bin labeling system with snap-in color swatches
Oversized backyard golf hole so kids can play with full-sized wiffle balls
Peepachu - not the original, but the best
Dog “doorbell” system
Incredibly specific, over-engineered bed riser
The Clarus combines sleek lines with a trustworthy liner lock platform.
This was a fun one-off project to create an architectural rendering of a new VP factory in Taiwan.
The Friday is a lightweight, versatile knife designed to be a reliable companion around the camp kitchen. With simple construction, it packs a lot of utility into an inexpensive, durable package.
These renderings were fully created in Solidworks/Photoview360. Jason even modeled the textile strap to create accurate images for a customer.
Wheels created as a design exercise in SolidWorks
Concept designs for a Boa reel system, drawn in Sketchbook Pro
Table created for a school project in 2006: walnut, bent wood laminate, cork
The full design process goes beyond product design and into branding, marketing, and packaging.
This is a sample of artwork Jason created for VP, from redesigning the corporate "VP" logo to product branding and designs for promotional goods. All logos were designed for their products’ manufacturing methods, and work in 1-color applications like laser etching and pad printing.
Jason also designed packaging for many of VP's products, with a focus on sustainability and clear customer facing information. Other 2D design work included branded corporate apparel, trade show equipment and signage, catalog layout, and custom laser & print graphics for sponsored teams.
