Project Overview - It's a Carpenter's World!
Woodworking has become an important trade, with the building that both urban and
rural areas have experienced over the past few years, not to mention the trend
towards buying locally, and supporting one's neighbours.
The Woodworking project encourages members in developing a sense of
accomplishment, pride and confidence, and also gives them a solid foundation in the
basics of woodworking, which could complement a future career.
This Reference Book has been divided by themes--Safety; Forestry and Sustainability;
Wood; Tools; Measurement; Patterns & Drawing; Fastening, and Sanding & Finishing
--with each theme serving as an umbrella for several learning modules. Information
on judging and entrepreneurship is included in the Activity Guide.
While the learning modules do all fall under a specific theme, each is designed to
stand alone, and can therefore be taught at any point throughout the club year. While
teaching the modules in succession may help to enhance the members' learning, it is
by no means necessary. Feel free to pick and choose!
