Statement of Intent

Name of the project: Boxed Bookcase.

What is the purpose of your project? The Boxed Bookcase that I will make will be going into my bedroom of my house. I wanted a new bookcase, with an Art Deco type style design. Having this new bookcase allows me to have a new place to put my expanding collection of books. With it also being an attractive piece of furniture in my bedroom, it will also be used to:

Have awards resting on it.Organise my folders.Organise my school work.

The Boxed Bookcase will enhance the mood of my bedroom, making it an easier place to be.

Why was it chosen? Just one of the many purposes of having this Boxed Bookcase is to fulfil the minimum requirements for my Year 10 Timber Elective Major Project & to demonstrate my skills which I have learnt over the past few years while at Callaghan College. This certain type of project will prove to be useful when I may move out & will need a bookcase which I can call my own to have when moving into a new house.

What materials have you chosen to construct your project from?The main materials I will use to construct my project will be Radiata Pine (290x19).

Give reasons for your choice of these materials:The reasons chosen for this material is because it is cheap, stains well, strong, & works well with most projects.

What types of joints will be used to construct your project? (Two):I will be using the following 2 joints in constructing my Boxed Bookcase:

Rebate Joints – Are used to hold the corner of the job of both members & also to stable the bookcase.Housing Joints – Will be used for the 2nd & 3rd column to slot into on the base of the bookcase.

What finishing methods will be used? I intend to stain it with a dark stainer. Only 2 or 3 full coats should do the job, if need be, maybe an extra one will finish it up nice. A clear lacquer will also be needed as a finish on the top to finish it.

Other materials needed are: Screws, Glue & Adjustable Shelf Plugs.

Design Sketches & PicturesUse Sketches & Colourful Pictures of Similar Designs. Also Make Brief Notes as to Their Good & Bad

Points.

Good Points: I like the design & style of the bookcase, as I wanted to copy mine like this, but changed it, as I didn’t wish to do the cupboard in mine. I like the reddish tinge left behind & the size of the bookcase.

Bad Points: It is too tall, especially if I made it for my bedroom, it would take up too much space. Not very much like a ‘box’ design at all, too rectangular.

Good Points: The wood used is Radiata Pine, which I have chosen to construct mine with.

Bad Points: The draw is far too small for anything to fit in & too far low to reach it. I first saw this one & wanted to copy its design, but changed it to a box designed bookcase.

6

Page 7: Wood Elective Folio Assessment Yr 10 - 2009

Good Points: Nice sleek, slender design, boasting the back panels with the boxed front & small drawer.

Bad Points: Too tall for my likings & the boxed front of the cupboard/bookcase is far too large.

Good Points: Exactly like what I wanted, with too many spaces. Nice clean design.

Bad Points: Too big for a Major Project & for my likings. Has no backing for it, & looks very unstable.

Good Points: Enough slots for all your books, folders & what- nots. It’s a great size for anything too.

Bad Points: The bookcase is on wheels, allowing to be moved around, which maybe a hazard of

some kind. But maybe having these wheels maybe an advantage.

7

Page 8: Wood Elective Folio Assessment Yr 10 - 2009

© Timothy Robinson – McCallum - 200910X Timber - Year 10 Industrial Technology Timber Products – Major Project Portfolio

Good Points: Large enough for all sorts of books & folders to be placed within the shelves. It is high enough & wide enough for anything.

Bad Points: Being too long may give it the chance & risk of falling over to the side & creating a mess.

Sketches of Chosen DesignMake Several Neat Sketches of Your Chosen Design. Show Several Different Views (Front, Top, Side

Views) & Make Brief Notes About Its Distinguishing Features. Also Show Approximate Dimensions On Sketches.

This bookcase is not very tall & not very small. The height & width are especially designed to fit my certain types of books & folders. One of these special designs it that 3 of the shelves can be moved around to house different sizes of books & folders.

Steps in Construction & Photographic DiaryOutline the steps used to construct your project & include any photos taken.

DESIGNING:1. Design a piece of furniture which can be used by you in the

home. Once chosen, a bookcase was for my bedroom. Mr. Dibley helped with the designing of the bookcase & to help modify some changes.

PREPARATION AND CUTTING:2. Using a Pencil, Tape Measure & a Set Square mark out the

necessary required cut marks.

3. Once all pieces of timber are marked out to be cut, take the timber to Mr. Dibley to be cut on the Drop Saw.

4. Set up all pieces of timber that is going to be used, & line them in order of getting cut.

5. When all the pieces of timber are cut (There are 11 total pieces) by Mr. Dibley on the Drop Saw, gather all items & label them, with chalk, according to size (By length).

JOINT WORK AND CUTS:6. With the Two Tallest Side pieces, mark all lines

for cuts & joints & where joints for the shelves will be placed. Once done, remember to do the same thing to the other side piece, but that piece will have different shelves.

7. Next, the Middle Side Piece is to be marked out for cuts & joints, remembering that this piece will differ from the rest.

8. Now, for the Smallest Side Piece, all that needs to be marked out is the Top Rebate Joint.

9. Worked out with a Pencil, Rule, & a Set Square, mark out where all the required joint cuts will go. NB, The Shelves can be put to the side; work doesn’t need to start on them for awhile.

10. When all joints are marked out with pencil and all full lengths are written in chalk, move all unnecessary items away from the workspace.

ROUTER WORK:11. Set up the Router at the workspace and mark out all new necessary guide

lines. Once the Router is set up & ready to use, start cutting into the wood from the left side, starting off the job, but staying right next to it. Only cut into it about 3-4cm so that on the return trip, you don’t “chip” the end piece off. Now start on the right side and follow the same steps but now you can cut through the whole way.

17

Page 18: Wood Elective Folio Assessment Yr 10 - 2009

© Timothy Robinson – McCallum - 200910X Timber - Year 10 Industrial Technology Timber Products – Major Project Portfolio

ROUTER WORK CONT:12. Once completed, you can now start on the other side of your piece of

wood, remembering the measurements and which way it will go. Continue doing that side the same way as you would have done on the other side. When the boards are laid up against each other & compared, they should be opposite each other, with the same joints as one another.

13. Now repeat Steps 11 & 12 to complete the other long side board. When you have completed that side board, you can start on the Medium Middle Piece. Then, using the Router, continue to cut all required cuts & joints.

14. Once the Medium Middle Piece has been cut, start on the Small End Piece. Only one cut is required for this piece, as it is the lowest.

15. Having made sure that all measurements & cut are to standard and accurate, work may now begin on the Base Board for the whole book case to stand on/in.

16. When spaces are equally spaced out for the cutting, set up the area for the clamps to be attached to the job & the work bench. Once again, use the Router to cut the joints out & once finished, check that all joints are in good condition & that each piece fits into its correct slot.

SANDING THE JOB:17. Once all cuts & joints are made, sand every single piece thoroughly, sanding

out any chalk & pencil marks. While sanding the job, check over it for any medium-large holes in the job & fill them up with ‘Putty’.

PRE-DRILLING:18. When it is fully sanded back with no chalk or pencil marks (Sanding will take

approximately 2-3 Woodwork Lessons) pre-drill all required drill holes with a 0.5mm Drill Piece for a 1mm nail & drill three holes for every slot/joint for a strong & sturdy hold.

GENERAL CONSTRUCTION:19. Once all slots/joints are pre-drilled with the 0.5mm Drill Piece, lay

the Bottom Base Board on the table up-side down & have the Tall End Piece in a 90° Degree position with the top on the ground. Place a long strip of Glue along the board & hold in place to the joint & nail into place. Three nails must be used on all slots/joints.

20. With the Bottom Base Board still in the same place, slide it out further & place the second Tall Piece in to place then put a strip of glue along it & nail, like the Step before.

21. With this next Step, it is a bit different. Put Glue on both Lower In-side Non-Adjustable Shelve Slots & put the Shelve in there. Nail it & hold firmly while doing so.

18

Page 19: Wood Elective Folio Assessment Yr 10 - 2009

© Timothy Robinson – McCallum - 200910X Timber - Year 10 Industrial Technology Timber Products – Major Project Portfolio

22. Now turn the job back to its correct position & place it on the ground. Then with the Top Piece, Glue it & nail it. While gluing it, have a handful of wet Material Waste to clean up the runny Glue so it doesn’t dry & leave marks & stains on your job.

CONSTRUCTING THE HULL:23. Now turn the job back over up-side down again on to the

table & put the Middle Piece in to place, Glue it & nail it while holding it firmly in place.

24. Turn the job back to its correct position again & place on to the ground. Glue the slot & joints & then place the Shelve into it. Nail it & hold firmly, like wise with the other Steps.

25. Once again, now turn your job back over & up-side down on the table & Glue the joint & have the Shelve in it. Nail the joint & the Shelves together firmly & hold it.

26. And again, turn the job back over to its correct position & Glue & nail in the last Shelve Piece. Hold all jobs in together firmly, while some joints (mostly the corners) will need to be clamped together.

SANDING AND PUTTYING:27. Once it is fully dried from gluing, sand over the job again, checking for any more holes in the job,

which can be Puttied up. Sand the 2 left-over Shelves as they will be used at a later date. Spend approximately another 2 Lessons fully sanding it all up.

28. Once the whole job & the 2 Shelves are completely Sanded & complete, it can all now get ready to be Lacquered & sprayed.

LACQUER SPRAYING:29. Now that the Bookcase has had its first Spray coat of Lacquer, sand the job very lightly with the

Sandpaper & then it can be sprayed again.

30. When the second coat has been given to the job, lightly, & only very lightly sand it back with the Sandpaper. You know when you have done a good job when it is really smooth to the touch. Don’t forget to Lacquer & Sand the 2 other Shelves as well.

31. Once the whole job is fully Sprayed & Sanded, it is now time to Lacquer it with the paint brush, giving it 2 more coats. Brush the whole job & the Shelves twice, & sanding them in between each one.

COMPLETION:

EvaluationDid your project turn out as intended? Did you make some changes?

Refer to your original statement of intent and make an honest evaluation of your completed Major Project.

Description of the Finished Project:My description for the finished task is that the Boxed Bookcase is of a typical box-like design, with the simple step-like structure, giving it that ‘wow’ look at the first glance at it for anyone. The Bookcase houses 6 compartments and will store a variety of books, folders, and other such small ornaments. The Bookcase stands at a medium height and with such books and folders; it will be a very stable piece.

What Problems Did You Encounter?Just some of the problems encountered were the designing of the Boxed Bookcase and the design elements that fit in to place with it. Another problem that I encountered, but overcame was the resizing of the Shelves.

How Did You Overcome These Problems?By overcoming these problems, I spoke with Mr. Dibley on how I can and could fix them. Mr. Dibley instructed me to do some small working out and soon after I found what I needed to do to fix the problems.

What Would You Change If You Could And Why?If I could change any design aspect of the Major Project, I would change the size of the Bookcase, because I believe that working with a bigger design is better than working with a smaller one. Alternatively, I would also change the whole design completely and instead of having a ‘Boxed’ design it may be a rectangular design; who knows?

Skills You Have Learnt:The few skills that I have learnt include on how to organise such a Project like this one and how to get it up and running from start to finish. With the Project itself, I have learnt how to manage the cost, time, and working procedures for the Major Project. Some other skills learnt were preparation of timber, knowledge of time management, self confidence in work, organisational skills & Practical & Theory Work and the concept of which it follows.
