My idea in this project was to make a weight for the hand muscles. I decided this because I thought it was a creative idea and I had more facilities in doing it.
At the beginning of this project, I was a little confused about how to start the project. I decided to get some help by the videos from Ms. Longi’s website. With help and a idea in mind, I decided to do a weight out of a glass bottle. The glass bottle was my 2nd option. My first option was to use a plastic bottle, but having in mind I needed something heavy and stable, I chose the glass bottle.
First I grab a glass bottle I found then in my room, and for some minutes I was thinking what to put inside the bottle that could help to make it heavier. I had sand at my sight and I thought it was a good idea. Once i inserted the sand in the bottle, I rolled the the weight in gray tape.
After I did this, I was trying to discover the weight of the bottle just by holding it. The weight of the bottle is like 3 pounds and it's actually really good for people who have a muscular disability, a little weight will help strengthen the muscle.
I used this weight with a person who could not hold so much weight and told me that the weight was very good for her, not only because of the weight but also because of the way she should hold it with her hand. This weight has a thick context and that is why it is very different
