Asymmetrical serving board

  • What is your project?
    • my project is a small serving board
  • How did you make it?
    • We cut many pieces of cherry and walnut ignorer to create our design
  • What do you like most about your project?
    • I like the non standard design of my board. Most people chose to create or use symmetrical cutting boards. I also like that I created a large chamfer on the Bottom edge to create a floating look.
  • What was challenging about this project?
    • it was challenging to decide what points to use so the grain would align nicely.
  • What would you change about the project if you did it again?
    • I would cut the chamfer to be on the other side. it looks fine but I think it could be better.
  • What is your plan for it now that it's done?
    • it will live in the kitchen and be used from time to time with guests.

Design Tech Cutting Board

By
 💫💖My Amazing Cutting Board💖💫 By: Olivia 💕💝😍👅 Our project for Design Tech was to make a cutting board. I made it with three different   types of wood, cherry, walnut, and maple. We sketched our ideas and figured out the dimensions for the cutting board. Once we knew how much wood we needed, we cut it out and glued it. My partner and I (Angelica) finished gluing the wood strips together and then cut it in half so we could each have a half. Once that step was finished, we flattened the board and sanded it. Then we used two coats of finishing oil. After that, we burnished twice. I also did the extra step of engraving my mom's monogram on the cutting board. My favorite thing was engraving the letters on the board and seeing it all come together. The hardest thing was getting over the fear of cutting the wood because the blades were very scary and fast. I might do more engraving because it was really fun. I am going to give it to my mom for Christmas.

It's a Pac-Man Party! (Coasters and Coaster Holder) - Design Tech Project

      In this project I worked on making Pac-Man themed coasters and a coaster holder to hold them. To make my project, I first started by trying to find a good idea I would be happy with making. It took some time, but after finding a few ideas I chose to make 6 coasters all with different characters or items from Pac-Man. I got reference photos of Pac-Man, two ghosts, one of those scared ghosts, a pixelized strawberry, and the pixelized cherries, all from the internet. Once I put together the reference photos, I got to work on designing what I wanted to laser cut or a software called Adobe Illustrator. The weeks before we started our projects we had been taught how to use Adobe Illustrator, so it wasn't too hard but still a little difficult. It took me around 3 of the 2 hour classes to finish the designs and once I was done I was has happy with the finished  products. I was one of the first to get my design uploaded to google drive and put on the lase...
