Members of Pineapple Leaf Group have gathered to produce paper from pineapple leaves left from pineapple harvest. The obtained paper has been used to make various types of products such as picture frames paper bags envelopes flowers key chains and so on for selling to visitors at tourist destinations and to those who came to observe the group’s production of paper and other local goods. However it is found that the product is not of much interest for the tourists as it should be. For this reason the researcher considers seeking appropriate solution to the group by using the pineapple leaves to make bas-reliefs with an aim to add value to pineapple leaf paper. From the creation of mold made of plaster and that made of resin and use both molds to make bas-reliefs it is found that the bas-reliefs obtained from resin mold are more beautiful and easier to produce. This is because resin mold is more durable clearer and lighter. The researcher has presented the bas-reliefs to 448 tourists who have come to visit the project during the period of one year and asked for their opinions and satisfactions. The results are that most of the respondents (327 persons) are female which accounts for 72.99% of all. Most of them or 352 persons (78.57%) obtain the secondary school diploma. The age range of most of the respondents (154 persons) is 31-40 years amounting to 34.38%. As for satisfactions of the quality of bas-reliefs made from pineapple leaves most of the respondents (72%) expressed “strongly agreed”. 75% of the respondents are “strongly agreed” with the product beauty. In terms of durability most of the respondents (61%) are “strongly agreed”. Concerning appropriateness of the product as souvenir most of the respondents (77%) expressed “strongly agreed”. Finally 73% of the respondents are “strongly agreed” with the idea that the product is potential for sale.

The shrinkage depended on the product shape and the type of plastic used in blow This research aims to study the shrinkage percentage of plastic polyethylene terephthalate grade : N1 used with the make blow mold in 2 stages. The testing results were as follow. vertical shrinkage percentage ( Z axis ) was 0.787 percentage and horizontal shrinkage Percentage ( XY axis ) was 2.13 percentage

This research aims to construct and evaluate efficiency of experiment set for work-piece analysis based on variety of cutting edge parameters of punch-die. The parameters included clearance punch shape and inclination of punch edge that related to cutting force error in diameter and deformation of work-piece. The developed experimental set was evaluated by 15 experts using 5-point scale questionnaire which was divided into two parts: content and worksheet and experiment set design. The efficiency evaluation was done by using the experiment set to teach a sample group of 15 students. Results showed that quality of the proposed experiment set was in the highest level with average score of 4.65 (SD = 0.47). The efficiency evaluation by teaching a sample student group revealed that the efficiency was 85.43/84.00 which was higher than the criteria of 80/80 in research hypothesis. Therefore it can be concluded that the constructed experiment set could be used to enhance students’ analytical thinking in punch-die work.
