Day 7





Today was the day to go to gangavati to get the Lamp holders made and to get a mould for the new size of the packaging bowl. The bowl we didnt find, but after a lot of patients and time Varalaxmi and i managed to get the holders made to the sizes we wanted. The biggest problem that the workshop has faced in the past is getting a consistency in the products. so i told him to cut pieces of wire in the size we need and then circle them around a pipe of the correct size.






Meanwhile i had also begun ideating some products using the waste coconut shells that were lying around in the workshop. I found a workshop with a fine cutter and got them to make two handles from coconut for me.







cost: labour 35 rupees. cost of rope 15 rupees. The cutting can finally be done in the workshop at Anegundi itself. I got the machine repaired at the workshop.
