GCSE Coursework: Bedside table

[TheTiddles]

That is a really good piece, some of the rubbish made by people for their projects these days at school is really sad. Well done!

=D> great job!


I went on to do A level product design, so i know what you mean about the course work :x

After two years of being out in the real world, i'm finally off to Leeds art and design to furniture making degree.

Excellent work woody, very impressed. Let us know what grade you get in the summer

From what I've seen of the work from the Chichester college furniture making course you'll learn all sorts of skills I don't have. I hope you enjoy it and continue to develop your own style.

I would have been proud of myself if I had made that when I was your age. =D> =D> =D>

You do have a bright future in wood working, keep it up :lol:

I agree - I'd be happy to make something like that now , let alone 20 years ago.

 

[richburrow]

Really well done, that is quality work.
I wish more of the students in my gcse classes had your skill and staying power.
fair play

A competent piece of work, of which you can be proud. It will certainly last.

I also like the way you express yourself. Full marks for that too.

Agreed John, always important on the forum IMO - Rob

Well Rob, I wouldn't dismiss a bit of levity and 'p' taking of course, but I do groan when I see ths Mobl spk we r xposd to thse dze!

With all due respects to Woody and his generation, it's OK on a mobile phone or in a chat program, I suppose, but I prefer to understand at first reading.

And by the way, should anyone mention it, I know text is decipherable, as long as the first and last letters are in place, regardless of how the rest of the word is jumbled!

cu l8r!Lol! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Although he could find the shift key for capital "I".

Great work on the cabinet, had you done much before this?

Perhaps we could start a thread of our first projects. My parents still have a rather shameful clock and magazine rack I made when I was 12. One of the boys in that class decided to try and stop a belt sander with his fingers (he had latched it on). It was quite messy.

 

[woodyone]

Well i have only been doing woodworking for about a year now and have slowly been putting together a workshop in our garage (even though this particular project was done at school). But this is the biggest project i have done so far, as before this i had made smaller things like boxes and some small turnings on my lathe. . But my competition entry which i am working on now and plan to start posting soon, has come to be just as much of a challenge and experience of what my bedside table was and am looking forward to see how it comes out.

[gandy]

just had a look in here, that is wonderful work for a gcse, beats my box, but i never finnished it (got in trouble, dont ask)

Maybe the lower case for the first-person singular is a sign of Woody's humility! :lol:

That's my problem reading on screen.
A) I need some decent specs for the PC!
b) These flat LCD screens distort and fade out certain letters. Well mine does at least!

 

[woodyone]

Gandy - I'm actually from East Sussex rather than West. So i have got about a 3 hour train journey to get to Chichester, and i went to a small community secondary school, with only about 600 pupils, not kings manor you never know though :lol:

 

[Shadowfax]

I would have been pleased to make anything like that at school (where I never made anything at all from wood).
Very well done, Woody. You have a talent, there.
Perhaps it is something to do with East Sussex!!
