Class Schedue- Week Two

Great job today with our skill building exercise. Aryal, please reach out to your friends to get caught up to speed. Hope you feel better soon. 

Here are the important deadlines for this week:

Due for next class, Jan 23rd-

1. Triangle and Square.

Pull out exposed nails, putty/fill holes and sand everything smooth.

2. Box/Finger joint cube.

Cut your finger joints, dry fit the whole thing together before you glue it up. If it's too tight a fit, you will not be able to put it together once the glue goes on. If its too loose, the glue will not hold. The joints should fit snugly. 

I recommend glueing this up with a friend. It's hard to do alone when you're first starting. Don't forget to put the plexi top and bottom in before gluing the sides! No glue is needed on the plexi. 

Once glued, putty any holes and sand everything smooth.  

Important: this has to be completed by Sunday so the wood glue is dry for class on Tue. We will cut the lids in class on Tue. 

3. Revised Technical Drawing for Base Box Project.

Be sure to send me your revised technical drawings via email asap. Include details on all joinery like I demonstrated in class today on the white paper. Once I sign off on your design, you can begin construction. 

Note: This is an art assignment, so please consider the idea/concept behind the work. Go back to the project description on the blog. 

Next Class is a Work Day

January 23rd will be a work day with individual attention for each student. Please come with all supplies and materials to work on your Base Box. 

Base Box project due date will be postponed till January 30th.
