Sec 4 'O' Level Design & Techonology project

was sorting out my pics...
saw my sec 4 D&T 'O' level project...
i din join the female home econs class at upp sec..
i join Design & Techonology class instead..
i like hands on stuff..

so my project is a 毛笔 hanger..

i had to take nice pics of my artifact n stick on my portfolio...
hence i had these pics..
too bad i cant take back as its submitted for 'O' level marking..

ohhh so memorable..
miss my D&T days...
where we girls r in the "guys" kinda techinical room with machineries n screws/nails etc everywhere.
i had lots of fun in tat class..

1st we had to brain storm a few things tat we want to do..
think my topic tat time is "Leisure"..
so i drew a few things tat's linked to "Leisure".

then had to draw out in my big big portfolio book..
i then start to learn how to draw in 3D view..
sooo sweet memory...

one of it is calligraphy...
so i thot of doing a 毛笔 hanger..
its easier to do la..
also its easier to draw in 3D too...

then have to draw a few designs of 毛笔 hanger...
once decide on the design, need to fine tune to make it more complicated to make..
like use "finger joints", do a waterproof inner base so can hold the ink etc..
n plan how n use wat to do..
everything need to be documented down in the portfolio..

finally all the portfolio planning is done..
we girls did very well for our portfolio book.. all get A1...
must be the nice drawing... keke..

at 2nd half of the yr, we started doing our real thing...

it started out with few planks of plain wood...
i had to saw, file to shape..
also to ensure my joints are fitted nicely...
lacquer the woods etc..
alot of hands on...

mine involved moulding a inner base.
so need to do a mould etc...
arggg.. forgot details liao...
its the white white plastic thing at the centre...
anyway after half yr's work...

tada!

my 毛笔 hanger...

Not say very nice..

but there's quite abit of hand skills involved..

and i got A1 for D&T in 'O'Level!

keke... ive got male hands.. haha
