For this assignment I was given an idem and was told recreate it at least 2 feet wide out of cardboard. I was given a pepper shaker lid. I did some research on the idem and found out that it is used by many people. However, it is normally metal. The Picture above is the bottom of it. I started off making this idem by cutting circles for the top lid that closes and the top of it that has the whole in it. After i cut the circles out, i cut strips out to form the seal of the lid. To make the seal round i ran it along the edge of the table. I saw Kevin do it and it worked so i did it that way.
I also did that with the bottom of the lid. Before i glued started gluing the lid together i cut whole in one of the circles. Then i measured the circumference of the bottom part of the lid to had the details of the sides. Then I glued rectangles on the sides and sand papered the top edge to give it a smooth edge which the lid does have. The only part i had a hard time with was the thing that connects the bottom and top of the lid together. I ended up making it several times.
When making it i had three ideas on what it could have been. One i was going to make a cup and drink out of it. Two i was going to make it a hat, and that is what i ended doing. The third one is a toilet seat.

The Jude's said that it is proportional with my body but would have liked more details. They also really like the performance of the paper coming out when i sneezed. The pics of me walking are from Geoffery.
