If you’re anything like me you have a blast furnace on standby, ready to toss a shoddy product design into the very instant it frustrates you.
Fortunately, you have great skills… great Kung-fu CAD skills that, harnessed under the proper kind of energy-efficient lighting with sufficient doses of caffeine, would rival the power of a million suns… or a design intern with bad head cold. There are a LOT of things that could use a good redesign, but what would you choose out of this list? or… What would you add?

Really, I wish I could have a hand in all of those things as I constantly get ideas from the discomfort/annoyances they cause. Some are actually well designed. They’re just not designed for my lopsided body or for other people that don’t fit the majority of users. Makes me think about the types of products that could be redesigned in a way that their use changes how the majority uses a product. I can’t think of any examples at the moment of this ever happening, although, I’m sure to some extent it has. What are your thoughts?
SolidSmack is a very small behemoth of an online community about 3D CAD, technology, design, robots, and ninjas… Ok, maybe not ninjas so much, but those guys are COOL so there just might be something about some dang ninjas.

Josh, I need your Kung-Fu CAD skills to redesign booster seats. They don't fit right in most cars, have to move them once kiddo is in them to be able to click the seat belt. Wanna take that one on?
Great idea. kid's stuff is tough because of the liabilities that surround it. I've had a few ideas for toddler products, but they suddenly become more trouble than they're worth when legal gets involved. SO wish it wasn't a case.
A solution to your problem though, would be to cut a piece of high-density foam that is custom fit to your car seat and booster seat. It would position it, while still keeping booster fastened in tightly. yeah?
I've done that actually, problem is you don't want to pay a gazillion dollars
Tv-centered living room, since TV had his best times. Also the couch should be more laptop friendly.
i'll try that out. i am not letting that booster get the best of me. i repeat, i am not letting that booster get the best of me. i might have to pull out some real kung-fu moves
Yep living room is a problem. Its multifunctionness is the problem, should be social meeting place, brain dead relaxing in front of a film/TV, web access, reading, drinking coffee and thinking….
and of course look realy good.
I like the outlet so much I decided to put it on my legs…this is my real legs.
I like the Outlets so much. I wanna make it better by integrating it to my body…This is my real legs.
a laptop friendly couch. good idea. there are a lot of laptop lap desks out there though. I'm thinking, multi-tier couches. something that adds more uses to the same space. run with it.
I do all I can to take the TV out of the center of the living room. the fireplace is the center currently. I'm also thinking of adding a office space in the living area, but one that's cohesive to people coming over and hanging out, or for the family that comes over to use the web.
ok… outlets instead of dragons or gothic shapes… ok. nice.
