Learning Objectives

Indicator: 2.4.2.LI.4 - Produce a model from your working drawings

By the end of the lesson, learners can:

Interpret their working drawings (first or third angle orthographic projections) to identify all parts, dimensions and assembly details needed for model production.
Select appropriate materials from the available stock (wood, plywood, nails, glue) that match the specifications in their working drawings.
Measure, mark out and cut each component of the model accurately to the dimensions stated in their working drawings.
Assemble the components of the model using appropriate joints, nails and adhesives to conform to the working drawings.
Assess their finished model against their working drawings and make corrections where the model deviates from the specified design.
