Meat Cutting Guillotine:
This is a small scale kitchen counter top and wall. The white piece represents a bracket that will be screwed into the wall that will allow different type of blades to be attached to the bracket. The bracket will allow the blade to swing 180 degrees and fold up against the wall for added convenience. The handle will have a rubber grip and the prototypes function is to allow the user to be able to cut various pieces of meats and other necessary items such as vegetables.
Remote Controlled Jar Holder:
User will place an item that requires twisting (jar, bottle, etc.) in between the clamps. User then controls the location of clamps with the remote, moving them forwards to lock item or backwards to remove item. There are also different sized clamp attachments for different sizes of items.
Scissor With Attachments:
With this device, the user will be able to perform three different tasks while only having to perform one motion. The grip is analogous to a scissor, and the user opens and closes the device like a scissor. Depending on the attachment, the device will either crack an egg, act as meat scissors, or grind spices. The egg cracker attaches, holds the egg and pushes the egg out while separating the shell. On the other hand, the scissors are specialized to cut meat and work very similar to normal scissors. Finally, the attachment for the grinder comes with its own grinder that one can put any spice in. All attachments should be feel easy but sturdy to lock into place and use.
The Shelf for Yourself:

To gain function, strap is picked up and placed over the user’s head so that the device hangs down at about stomach level in front of the user. The shelf was built to tackle the problem of stabilizing and moving heavy pans or objects from counter to oven or from oven to table. The shelf is used by sliding a pan or other object (box, books, etc.) onto the small lip and using one hand to hold the object up, letting the shelf take the majority of the weight which is dispersed onto the user’s waist and shoulders from the strap. The shelf will help reduce fatigue for lengthened carrying and will allow the carrying of hot objects such as a cookie sheet right out of the oven.
