Drill - It is a hand tool, power tool, or machine with a
rotating cutting tip or reciprocating hammer or chisel,
used for making holes.
Safety Goggles - Safety goggles are used to
protect the eyes of the wearer during activities
where eye injury is a risk.
Tri - Square - It is used for marking right angles
on a work-piece or checking the "squareness" of
something, i.e. that an angle is a right angle.
2. Tenon Saw - The commonest type of back saw. The tenon saw is
a mid-sized saw that gets its name from its use in cutting tenons
for mortise and tenon joinery. Like all back saws it has a stiffening
cap over the top edge of the blade, which prevents flexing of the
blade and provides good control when cutting.

Smoothing Plane - A smoothing plane or smooth plane is a type
of bench plane used in woodworking. The smoothing plane is
typically the last plane used on a wood surface - when used
properly, the finish it gives will be far superior to that made by
sandpaper or scrapers.

Coping Saw - A coping saw is a type of hand jaw used to cut
intricate external shapes and interior cutouts in woodworking or
carpentry. It is widely used to cut moldings to create coped rather
than miter joints. It is occasionally used to create fretwork though
it is not able to match a fretsaw in intricacy of cut, particularly in
thin materials. Coping saw blades are always thicker and much
coarser cutting than typical fretsaw blades.

Marking and Measuring
PROCESS JOURNAL
EMOTION
I was very happy because I started making the cosmetic organizer. I
am really expecting that I make great cosmetic organizer. However,
measuring the sides were very difficult. I felt tired.
WHAT I DID & WHY
This is the bottom of the product
From the beginning of the class, I marked and measured a bottom
and 2 sides on the wood. Their sizes are 180 x 180 x 10 and 2 for
180 x 170 x 10. In fact, writing a size of the side is very hard because
the shape of the side is stairs. It is hard to describe the size.
WHAT TOOLS DID I USE
I used ruler, pencil, eraser and tri-square. Ruler for measuring the
length, and tri-square for drawing a straight line. I also used tri-square Using Ruler for Measuring
for drawing the straight line all around the wood like the last picture in
case I cut the wood on the wrong way. Some students cut the wood out
of the line.
LEARNER PROFILE
I think I am a carer because I tried not to waste the wood. I used the
corner of the wood for marking the bottom. The shape of the bottom is

a square. It fits right on the corner of the wood.
PLAN
My plan is to cut the bottom and sides. After I cut them, I will start to measure and mark the
front and back part of the product.
AREAS OF INTERACTION(AOI)
I think it is Human Ingenuity. I can give this product to people who need a cosmetic organizer. I
think that teenagers will like this cosmetic organizer because it is playful and decorative. For
me, I will give cosmetic organizer to my younger sister. She really needs cosmetic organizer
because her cosmetics such as nail polishes and lipsticks are lying on the floor. I will give her the
product for the environment of the room.

Planing and Cutting
PROCESS JOURNAL
EMOTION
Today was very fun because it was my first time to use the plane.
Sometimes, I felt tired due to the smoothing plane. Using it was little bit
difficult for me. However, after I finished planing, I satisfied at the
parts.
WHAT I DID & WHY Using Pull Saw to Cut the
Bottom
I continued to cut the bottom and sides because I haven’t finished
cutting yet. I used tenon saw and pull saw. Tenon saw is the saw for
cutting the wood, however, the top of the tenon saw is covered by
Brass back. Brass back is for cutting the wood straightly. If I couldn’t
saw anymore, I had to cut the wood to use pull saw. That is because
pull saw doesn’t have brass back. It is also efficient because it can cut
the wood faster and easier. Then I planed the bottom and sides for
shaving the useless part of the wood which was the space between cut
line and pencil line. For fitting the parts exactly, I had to plane the Using Smoothing Plane
edges of the wood. As you see the picture next to the text, planing to reduce the base to

I think I am a risk taker because I researched about the safety rules
about using smoothing plane. I also asked Mr. Anderson about how to
use the smoothing plane.
PLAN
The Sides of the Product
My plan is to measure and mark the front and back part of the
product. Their sizes are 180 x 170 x 10 and 180 x 70 x 10. After I
finish measuring and marking on the wood, I will start to cut them.
CHANGES TO YOUR PLAN
I wrote ‘After I cut them, I will start to measure and marke the front and back part of the
product.’ at the first process journal. However, I needed to plane the wood.
AREAS OF INTERACTION(AOI)
I think it is Environment. I can save the materials such as paint, wood, sand paper, glue and
screw during creating the product. If only I do not waste the wood, people have to cut the wood
little bit. If all the students save the wood and try not to waste the wood, lots of trees will be
cut. The more I save the materials, the more I save the environment.

Today was busy because I wanted to finish all the parts of the cosmetic
organizer.
WHAT I DID & WHY
I finished all the parts of the cosmetic organizer(2 sides, 1 front, All the parts of cosmetic
bottom, back, 2 dividers). Firstly, I measured and marked on the wood organizer
to make front, back and dividers. I used ruler, pencil, eraser and tri-
square. Ruler for measuring the length, and tri-square for drawing a
straight line. I also used tri-square for drawing the straight line all
around the wood. Secondly, I cut the wood to use tenon saw and pull
saw. The reason I used tenon saw and pull saw is in the second process
journal. Thirdly, I did very quick sanding, filing and planing. That is
because files, sand paper and plane make the wood smoother. Sharp
edges will hurt children by cutting their fingers.

Making the bottom FIT
PROCESS JOURNAL
EMOTION
Today, I was little disappointed at my work because I thought that
I measured and cut all the parts of the product correctly. There
was an error of the size of the bottom.
WHAT I DID & WHY
I had time for checking the parts of the cosmetic organizer. Then I
found an error which is the size of the bottom. There was no gap
to put the sides. Therefore, I measured the length of the thickness
of the sides and cut the parts. I used tri-square, ruler, gent saw
and chisel. Ruler for measuring the length, and tri-square for Using gent saw to cut out the

straight line all around the wood. Gent saw for cutting the sides of
the wood. The thickness of the blade of the gent saw is very thin,
so I had to use gent saw for cutting very small size of the wood.
Lastly, I used chisel. It was my mistake. I didn’t have to use chisel to
cut the sides. It was just the waste of time.
LEARNER PROFILE
I think I am a risk taker because I researched how to cut clearly
without any broken parts or little thorns form the wood. Therefore,
I cut the wood slowly and clearly. I got very nice edge of the

WHAT I DID & WHY
I made the joints for the dividers. Actually, I didn’t make the joints by

2. Cut the top and bottom of the box as well as the sides and back.
->Top&Bottom : 180 x 180 x 10, Sides&Back : 180 x 70 x 10
4. Measure the drawer on the wood. Make the drawers smaller to
allow them to slide in or out.
->Bottom : 170 x 170 x 10, Sides&Back : 170 x 50 x 10

EMOTION
Today was little bit tired and unsatisfied at the product. That’s
because I found a problem at drilling stage. I had to drill the hole
straightly, however, I drilled diagonally. So the wood was broken!
WHAT I DID & WHY
I found the problem which is broken wood(which is mentioned in the Filling the hole by using putty
first picture). Therefore, I filled the hole with putty. Putty is very useful
tool. I can fill any holes with putty and the putty become very
hard(like wood). Then, no one would know that I put putty after paint
stage.
After I filled the hole, I marked the hole and drilled on it by using
cordless drill. It very easy to use; It doesn’t have the cord to plug in.
In addition, I can change the drill bit with a few touches.
After drilling, I made the bottom smoother before screwing. That’s
because sanded side is easier to paint and screw. I used smoothing
plane. For me, I hate that tool because it is too heavy and hard to
use. There is a small blade which makes me hard to do because it

Making two backs(Sanding and Cutting)
PROCESS JOURNAL
EMOTION
Today was little bit boring and dissatisfied with my project
because I felt that the drawer and the cosmetic organizer don’t
match well.
WHAT I DID & WHY
At the beginning of the class, I disc sanded the front for making
the sides of front smoother. I used disc sander. It is useful but very
dangerous. It turns so fast so I can sand the side very easily and Cutting the back by using
fast. However, sometimes there are too many dusts. That is why we tenon saw
wear an apron and a goggle before using disc sander.
Then I started making the second back of the drawer. I cut the
wood bigger than the first back. That’s because I need the space
for screwing so that the drawer and cosmetic organizer won’t
separate. I used smoothing plane to sand the long side of back.
That’s because disc sander doesn’t have enough space for long
side.

I think I am a risk taker because I researched about the safety
rules about using smoothing plane. I also asked Mr. Anderson
about how to use the smoothing plane.

It was totally my fault. However, I really like glueing. I was so happy with glueing. PVA glue is
non-toxic so even children can use it. In addition, It can be gotten rid of very easily by using
