Route plan

18th August

we decided upon the theme for our products and made SWOT analysis for the same. this took us till noon . later we decided to visit houses and collect cans or bottles whatever could have been possible.
later in the afternoon we took a trip through the houses in the SFS colony. Afternoon did not prove a good time to visit houses also most of them were not very supportive. we ended up just up just getting a few boxes and empty tubes. we also tried a asking help from a few shops but nothing worked. so we visited the scrap shop in the market and found a interesting trunk. As we were not aware of the price offered we waited for looking at more places and at the same time some shopkeepers told us to visit the Attur layout for timber waste but as we went there we did not find anything so we returned home late evening and thought of continuing the next day.


19th August

Today we planned to narrow down on our search by first thinking over the products we would like to bring in. this took up a lot of thinking as we had to connect the products to our topic of research and to the people(our audience).
we came up with around 9 products which possibly could be made.
later in the evening we designed these products and thought about the materials it would require to be made.
some things seemed not so possible to be made because of their availability. so next day we decided to g to the market area in the city.

20th August

Today as we had liberal arts till 2 we decided to leave the city as soon as it was possible.
we traveled a lot to almost all those streets where the truck and auto material could be available like Siddaya road, Kalipalyam street, S.P. road, Gujri and Russel market.
We went to all these places however failed to get the horn we were looking for. we managed to get the rear view mirror and we also managed to get a trunk. However the horn searching took almost 2 hours of our time and when we got one it was over expensive so we decided to leave the idea.
however we managed to get some wood from our friends place just to save out on the cost. If this option will not work out we will be visiting the city again tomorrow to get some more products.
