Demonstration- Finishing your project
Part of Lesson Plan: Redwood Planter Box Project
Activity Overview / Details
During this demonstration, I use pieces with common mistakes and
fix them using different techniques depending on the flaw. I stress
to the students that although this seems like the easiest step, it
is the most important step to complete as well as being the most
important. Finishing:
1. Sand your project down, to a nice smooth finish.
2. Stain or paint your project.
3. Turn your project in to the designated area. Turn in the
project and the grading sheet.
