Pattern Making 1

Nice to meet you, my name is Akinobu Ushizaka, a pattern maker.
This time, I would like to introduce custom-made pattern making.
My job involves integrating data collected from customers and checking measured numbers. This number is important data that our customers spent their precious time and stayed with us for a long time.

You can't miss a single spot.
What kind of bike do you ride and what kind of concept do you want it to have? The pattern differs greatly depending on whether you mainly wear street clothes or focus on riding.
Also, the photos we take when ordering will help you imagine the three-dimensional image from the numbers. Drafting is subtracted from 1. Of course, thanks to the fact that the key points are simulated using ready-made products, we will compare them with ready-made patterns, but this is just a reference.
In the past, I used to draw the drawings by hand on cardboard, but now I use a computer to create pattern-making software called CAD, which has been introduced in recent years.

With the introduction of CAD, pattern management has greatly improved, but in reality, pattern making is done by hand on a computer screen, so the process is almost the same.

I draft while going back and forth between the 3D in my head and the 2D drawing.
It's a painstaking process, but it requires imagination and logic.

While imagining the customer happily wearing the finished product,
I am still working hard today on the 6th floor of the Kadoya headquarters building.
