Course Overview

This course is based upon an individually designed assignment using framing joints or solid carcase construction. Wood turning is an option during this course. Technical writing, designing and graphics will be related to the student design brief.

Students design and complete:
•    Working drawing (CAD)
•    Cost and construction procedure for the project
•    Stain and apply clear finish if desired
•    Evaluation of final product and processes.

Students will make at least one project using a plate jointing machine and possibly a range of portable power tools.

Each student will be allocated $20 for consumables and materials at the commencement of the course.  Costs in excess of $20 are to be met by the student.

Assessment

Assessment will be through practical projects and theory exercises.
A design brief will be required, including sketches, drawings and an evaluation.
This will be foundation work for the “Folio” required at Stage 1 and 2
