Summary of Project

So far, this project has been my favorite project all year. I liked this project because of the hands on activity that it involved and the planning that it needed. I also enjoyed learning how to work with wood and machines that I have never worked with before.  This project however didn’t turn out the way I planned it to. I realized that working with the band saw and straight lines is much harder than I anticipated and didn’t leave much room for error. In my original plan I wanted to use the drill press 5 1 inch holes onto the side of my box to show the color of each nail polish bottle without reveling what it was, but without thinking of how thin the wood on the sides of my box would be it snapped the boards. I still managed to get a unique and manageable look from the damage but it’s just not what I envisioned. I am satisfied with my box for my first time with working with these machines.
