Step 5Tragic Failures
With all great things comes the occasional epic failure. There were several designs that didn't work at all for me.
One coworker suggested I attempt to use the Empire State Building. The problem is that unless you put it upside down, it's a bit too skinny to clip on. (thinking on it now, I suppose you could just clip an upside down clip from the bottom of the page...but who does that?)
Another piece is a hand, before I figured out how to break apart lines in Corel Draw. (If you hide a cut under a box that has no color...the cut still happens)
The final failure (well, kind of) is a paperclip based on the San Francisco Muni design. Since I ride public transportation everywhere, I figured it'd be nice to sport on the bus. Unfortunately there's too many random/stray lines going on, so when you try to clip it it keeps getting caught. I'm sure I could fix it, I just don't want to take the time. These are all very quick, very easy things to make (no need to mess that up with a four hour project).
Other then that, I'm quite happy with these, and they work really well. The key chain ones are especially nice!
