Torque
Tightened to spec.
A workshop open day for five years of things that spin. Inspection tags on everything, a parts wall of the cohort, and one machine the whole group builds and switches on at the end.
01
The concept
Five years in the workshop. Run the last test.
Torque stages the day as a workshop open day. Every printed thing is an inspection tag or a parts drawing, the wall is a pegboard with one labelled tool per person, and the centrepiece is a chain-reaction machine the group builds across the week and starts on stage.
It's made for mechanical, mechatronics and production students, who'll check the tolerances. The palette is machine grey, workshop paper and safety orange.
02
Identity
An inspection tag and a part number.
An inspection tag system — part number, torque value, inspected by, date — used on name cards, the pegboard and the running order. Supplied editable, with an Arabic-ready lockup.
A part-number set per person and a four-page guide whose one rule is that safety orange marks a warning or a pass, never decoration.
03
Design assets
Print-ready at true size, no guessing at the copy shop.

Photography
Twelve shots, in order, for a workshop under strip lights.
Metal reflects everything, so the list keeps the pegboard side-lit and faces off the shiny surfaces: hands on a spanner, the tag being tied, the whole group watching the machine run.
A grade preset that keeps greys neutral and the orange from going red.
08
Video
One 45-second edit anybody can cut on a phone.
The machine, filmed stage by stage, each stage cut to the person who built it.
Part-number titles as transparent PNGs, plus a guide to filming a chain reaction in one take.

Photo pieces
The things people photograph
Eight pieces come in every realm, drawn in that realm's own colours. Each one is a print file at its real size with a how-to page — send it to a print shop or make it at home. Your department code and year change on all of them at once in Studio.
