Day 4

Today we learned about different types of joints and learned how to make them in a joint making exercise. We had to use 100x50 pieces of timber the joints we had to make were half dove tail, dove tail. We learned about how to look at the timber and to know if its straight and to get a clean piece of timber that doesn't have knots because a piece of pinewood timber has knots in it then you can cut the knot off or go around the knot and when you come to use a chisel its hard to chisel on a piece of wood that has knots and the type of timber that used is pinewood timber
