WM.04.18 Identify characteristics and applications of the following engineered lumber: plywood and medium density fiberboard.(D22)
WM.05 Describe and demonstrate the attributes of wood design.
WM.05.01 Utilize the design process; including defining a problem, brainstorming, researching and generating ideas, identifying criteria and specifying constraints, exploring possibilities, selecting an approach, developing a design proposal, making a model or prototype, testing and evaluating the design using specifications, refining the design, creating or making it, and communicating processes and results.
WM.05.02 Check and critique a design continually, and improve and revise the idea of the design as needed. WM.05.04 Develop a production plan, including the layout, bill of materials, and cost analysis, for the production of cabinets or wood products.

Source an appropriate stackable bowl design suitable for production on a band saw & scroll saw.

Students will be able to create a design that aligns to their own personal ability and comfort level.

Students will have a design that will show the ability of the projects completion.
