Design Glut's toys for the Joby Inspired Gallery
Tags: Design, Design Glut, Joby, MakerBot, Rapid prototyping, San Francisco, Toys

We were invited to repurpose Joby’s products for the upcoming Joby Inspired pop-up shop and gallery. What a fun challenge! After playing with their tripods for a while, we were inspired to designed toy parts that interlock with Joby’s bendable structure. Once we were happy with the design, 3-D printed them out using a MakerBot. Watch the video below for a more in-depth explanation of the project.

If you’re in San Francisco, make sure to check out the show in-person. It opens tomorrow – details here).

And if you’re not in SF, check out pictures of the final pieces below:

Thanks again to everyone who helped make this happen! We had a lot of fun.
