On monday the 2 of May it was raining and we went into the the workshop to make a BBQ table, which didnt take long. we went into to groups of 3-4 and made different parts to our a BBQ table. my group was in charge for the bracing parts, in this picture we are cutting the small the braces that go underneith the top plate. then we go and get the wood for the runners and cut the angles. then we realized the runners were to short so we decieded to make longer ones.

here in this picture we are drilling the bolt holes. then we put the bolts through then we sorted out 180 mm each side of the seat and the top planks, then we put it on like the picture below.

Work Experience at royal oak intermediate

My first day doing WE (work experience) it is really cool stuff. I De nailed a shelf and took it down, Some of the nails were really bent so it took me a bit longer. first i grabbed the hammer and hit the top of the hammer and the top came apart, After that i started to De nail the shelve top. After morning tea i went to the woodworking room to move the tools over to the other room. after lunch i carried on with moving tools after i finished i came to update my blog.
