well since it takes forever for the front page and notes to be updated...i'll just post it here

i did woodwork from year 7 all the way to year 11
i did it for 5years and got pretty much excellent results every year because the talent of the people who did this subject is not all that great :D
i did it not because it was a good opportunity to come top rank everytime...it was because i truely loved woodworking and making amazing stuff out of planks of timber heheh :p
i wouldn't have dropped Industrial Tech but 4u maths sux....plus all the good woodwork teachers that taught me from yr7 had left...leaving these useless fresh out of tafe or something, that couldn't even change the band saw blade AFTER showing us a video as to how to do it...

here is my year 11 folio for a simple....VERY simple box...don't have any pictures of it but you might be able to steal something useful from it for your yr12 major work and the portfolio

pictures tell a thousand works....adding pictures and descriptions to them can gain to extra marks!

you should know how much research needs to be shown in every project before it even begin!

What im doing, and what the teacher wants.

Hello ppls of earth,
Well im glad im sticking with In-tech. I plan to make a A-frame Viking Tent, a two-part medieval chest and a another medieval chest with a built-in esky in it. But i have had to stand up for my decison for keeping the tent, because my teacher just wanted me to do the chests. That was last year, since then he is seeing the tent as a fun thing to do after finishing the chests.

But unfortantly i have no money to buy wood and neither does my dad. Any ideas of cost cutting??? :)

I hope if any of you guys want to do something different and the teacher doesnt like it, keep saying no!!! it worked for me (though i made the only female in a class of six)
Ill show you my finished projects (hopefully!) at the end of the year.
Please, if you are doing any interesting projects please tell me!!
