Lesson 2: Cutting Board Layout & Assembly
Duration of Days: 3
Lesson Objective
Students will layout their design for their project that meets the given criteria.
How do you get your design to transfer to the finished board?
Will the design still work once the wood is selected?
What are some things that will make the next steps easier for the project?
WM.03 Identify and describe the safe and appropriate use of various types of hand and power tools and machinery used for building.
WM.03.01 Identify, use, and maintain the following measuring, layout, and marking tools: steel rule, tape measure, combination square, sliding âTâ bevel, and compass.*(B8)
WM.03.14 Select appropriate tools, procedures, and/or equipment.
WM.03.15 Follow laboratory safety rules and procedures.
WM.03.16 Demonstrate good housekeeping at a workstation within total laboratory.
WM.04 Explain and be able to demonstrate the methods involved in turning raw materials into useable products.
WM.04.04 Interpret a design to facilitate replication
WM.04.05 Describe and identify fractional measurements from a basic plan and assembly drawings.*(C13)
WM.04.08 Measure accurately to a sixteenth of an inch.*(C16)
WM.04.10 Interpret a design to facilitate replication Prepare stock for use.*(G28)
WM.04.11 Consider the natural characteristics of grain, knots, and checks when laying out a board.*(C19) WM.04.12 Identify and assemble the following types of joints: butt, miter, dado, rabbet, and lap.*(G27) WM.04.20 Identify, describe purpose of and use woodworking adhesives.*
WM.04.21 Identify and describe the purpose of the following clamping devices: bar clamp, c-clamp, parallel/hand screw clamp, and spring clamps.*(H30)
WM.05 Describe and demonstrate the attributes of wood design.
WM.05.03 Design and create cabinet and wood products
Select appropriate strips of wood species with the design for a laminated hardwood cutting board. Allow students to demonstrate their ability to arrange their pattern. Students will verify the required board dimensions and lay out the boards on bar clamps. They will use appropriate adhesives to join strips creating the laminated board.
Students will be able to create a design that aligns to their own personal ability and comfort level.
They will be given the assistance needed to complete the task at hand.
Students will have a design that will be transferred to the required boards.
Boards will be joined using glue and bar clamps.
