I hope that there will be further opportunities to experiment using JIIC's facilities. Without this support it would have been hard to make progress due to the limited facilities in my own workshop.

The JIIC team were approached to help Aimee realise her ring design using their CAD, Rapid Prototyping and finishing expertise, to the award schedule.


The JIIC was asked to undertake two projects, one to replicate an existing Dudley Borough Police badge, and the second to recreate insignia for the postman's hat, epaulettes, and buttons.


The initial brief, and first project, was for the JIIC design team to assist Broadway by providing trend and market research information, and then to design a set of silver candlesticks that met the companies brief and needs.


JIIC assisted with the design & manufacture of a range of table-top products utilising technology that was new to the company, which offered the potential to introduce further ranges based on a self-assembly theme.


The first project required the JIIC team to advise DJT on best practice and standards of application for anodised aluminium products.


In order to develop a new set of illustrations for her presentations to designers and clients, Gaelle needed to explore and incorporate the use of Computer-Aided Design and model making.
