Technology wood part 2

THE STEP BY STEP PROCESS

Step 1: I used a piece of wood, a pencil, paper and a ruler to make a full size working drawing of my piano because if I make a mistake on my drawing I can fix it but if I make a mistake on the piece of wood it's really hard to fix.


Step 2: I used a ruler and a pencil to copy the measurements from my drawing onto my piece of wood to start making my piano.


Step 3: I marked a square line ( at 90 degrees ) across and down the sides using a Tri-square and a pencil onto my piece of wood.


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 using a Ruler, a Tri square and a pencil.


Step 6: I then cut the sides of the joint out with a backed saw.


Step 7: I chiseled out the waste wood with a chisel in between the lines I had made with the backed saw to make a joint


Step 8: I checked to see if my joint worked by using my other piece of wood to check if it fit and it did


Step 9: I then went to ask for another piece of wood for my second join that I was going to make


Step 10: I then measured out the second joint for the other side of my piano using a pencil, a Tri-square, a ruler and a piece of wood


Step 11: After that I cut the sides of my second joint with a backed saw and a bench hook


Step 12: I then chiseled out the waste wood in the middle the finish off my second joint


Step 13: I checked to see if my second joint worked by using my other piece of wood to check if it fit and it did


Step 14: After I put my longest piece of wood in the two joints I had made I gave my work to Mr Grundy and he glued my longest piece of wood into my two joints and he told me to let it dry for half and hour


Step 15: After my wood work dried I gave my work to Mr Grundy Because I need to cut out some weird shapes on the sides of my project


Step 16: After Mr Grundy had finished cutting the weird shapes out of my piano. He glued a very thin piece of wood on the back of my piano and it didn't go all the way to the end of the back of my piano. But it wasn't stable enough so Mr Grundy but four tacks into each corner to make it more stable


Step 17: After my piano had dried Mr Grundy toke out the tacks from my piano


Step 18: Then I got a extra piece of wood for the front of my piano to cover the extra space I didn't need

Step 19: The after all of that I had to mark out the lines for my keyboard using a ruler a tri-square made out of wood and a black coloured sharpie

Step 20: After that I got a extra thin piece of wood for my lid

Step 21: Then I gave my work to Mr Grundy because I didn't know what to do so he got a extra piece of wood for the inside of my lid and he cut and shaved it into shape so it would fit on the thin piece of wood and also to see if it would fit inside of the space in the piano that I did need then he glued it together.

Step 22: After my work had finished drying I then gave it to Mr Grundy and he found some pieces of wood that he was going to make pedals for me to put on my piano so after he had finished making them he glued them on

Step 23: After the pedals dried I gave my work to Mr Grundy because I didn't know what to do next. He then got another piece of wood for the knob on top of my lid to finish of my piano
