Cutting Board- Design Tech Project

By
What is your project? For this project, we made a Cutting board How did you make it? We first started planning on what design we wanted to do. Then we started measuring the dimensions of the wood. we had an option of choosing three different types of wood. i decided to use cherry and walnut wood. we cut the pieces into the length and width we wanted and glued them together. once the glue was dried we cut the board in half then we ran the wood through the thickness planer several times. after we used the table router to make the edges even. we sanded the board and applied varnish oil i let it dry and i put a second layer. and then it was all done. What do you like most about your project? i liked how the design turned out What was challenging about this project? the most challenging part was using the wood cutter. i found it difficult to use What would you change about the project if you did it again? i would make a more complex design next time What is your plan for it now that it's done? im going to use it as a cutting board

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.

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.

Cherry Wood Cutting Board - Design Tech Project

By

What is your project? I created a cherry wood cutting board. It is a total of 2 planks of wood, both cut in half and lined up, so it is now 4 separate pieces.  How did you make it? I cut 2 planks of cherry wood in half, planed and leveled, routed the corners off, and finished with a linseed oil and beeswax mix.  What do you like most about your project? I like that I was able to create something that is going to be useful to me in my house. My family does a lot of cooking, and it certainly will not hurt to have another cutting board! What was challenging about this project? To be honest, it wasn't. the toughest part for me was that I wanted to do more, but as our previous project ran longer than expected, I was not able to add in those touches. What would you change about the project if you did it again? I just wish that we could have had those originally planned classes. That was the only facet of this project that I had any real issue with.  What is your plan for it now...
