The Spice Machine

Whenever I go to my friends house for dinner or lunch, I always see their parents running around the kitchen looking for certain spices. I thought to myself, what if there was a spice machine that could organize your spices. The machine has 12 racks for 12 spices of your choice. The machine also comes with its own containers being the same size, so you don't have to worry about the containers not being able to fit.

Research

There are numerous spice racks on the internet, however they are bulky and large.

Inspirations

I wanted to have a similar design to a coffee cup or tea organizer because they were easy to use and aesthetic.

These are my sketches of the container holders and the whole beam.

The Containers

The containers all have a uniform length and width. They all have a small cap on the top. I wanted to make the containers see through, but Autodesk does not have that feature.

Prototype

The edges on the end were a bit too small so I had to extend them and make it a bit bigger for the final product.

Final Design and Conclusion

This is the final design with all of the containers in place. Overall, I am content with this design and I feel like there is still areas I can improve on. I feel like this design will be used later on in the future and I feel like it will have a good impact in the cooking world.
