It is now week 8. Ir has been a hard working term but I managed to finish of my box, It took a lot of measuring with the tri-square, cutting the the saw and a lot of concentration and focus.
I could make use of this box to keep all my personal things inside or jewelry.
We went over some safety rules on how to use the tools. how to handle them and where to put them in the right place. We than had to figure out the measurements for the wood and measure them using a rue and a tri-square. After that we got taught how to use a saw to cut the joints and then use a chisle and a
hammer to cut out the extra wood. Now that we have finished with cutting out all the joints we than had to name the sides so that we can glue them to the correct joints. After we have glued the joints together we then sand the sides to make sure that it is smooth, after we sand the sides we then use these
special power tools called a sander to sand the whole box until it is silky. Now that we have finished the sanding section we then moved onto to coating it with oil using a cloth and dipping it inside the container witch had the oil inside and rubbed it all over the box including the lid, so that the box will have a nice touch up, we made sure that we did two layers of oil. We let the box dry and is now ready to be taken home.
