Learning with a purpose

An idea. A design. Something real.

Engineering students turned a workshop challenge into a practical solution for Bricklaying learners.

Chelmsford's T Level Engineering students designed and 3D-printed spirit-level holders. Working with lecturers, they considered stability, fit and ease of use, then tested their designs against the brief.

    Find the need

    Keep spirit levels upright, accessible and protected in the workshop.

  2. 02

    Develop the design

    Explore ideas and build a CAD model around the practical requirements.

  3. 03

    Make it

    Use 3D printing, considering material use and printing time.

    Test and improve

    Check the finished holder against the brief and respond to feedback.
