Wood Tech-The process

The tools I used:
Steel rule
Tri-square
Mallet
Marking gauge
Wood chisel
Claw hammer
Backed saw
Bench hook

Step 1. I used a paper, pencil and a ruler to make a full size working of my box, so I know that it is possible to create.

Step 2. I used: a ruler, tri-square and a pencil to copy the measurements from my drawing onto the wood.

Step 3. I marked a square line(at 90 degrees) across and vertically using a marking gauge

Step 4. I cut off the first piece of wood using a backed saw and a bench hook.

Step 5. I then marked out the joint on the wood using a marking gauge

Step 6. I then used a backed saw to cut out the line used by a marking gauge.

Step 7. The next thing I did was I used a sharp wood chisel and a mallet to cut out the remaining wood pieces to create the joint.

Step 8. Next thing I did was I added my 140cm piece of wood to my joint and glue it altogether and let it sit for an half an hour.
