Design Concepts

I want to make a Jeep because I want to see how fast or slow the Jeep will go. The purpose of making this Jeep is so I can play with it. I have chosen to make it for my siblings and I.

One of the tools that I used was a ruler to make a full size working drawing of my project because I had to be exact with my measurements.

Step 1- I used a tri-square to copy the measurements from my drawing onto the wood.

Step 2- I marked a square line at 90 degrees across the wood with the ruler and I marked with the tri-square.

Step 3- I cut off the first piece of wood using a saw and slightly sanded it. 

Step 4- I then marked the wood with a pencil that would be the joint.

Step 5- Next I cut the wood with a saw and chiselled the rest of the wood out but not past the line.

Step 6-I tried to fit the piece of wood that I cut into the space but it couldn't fit. I tried sanding it but only half of it could fit in. So I took it to Mr. Grundy and he trimmed and sanded it so it could fit.

Step 7-Mr. Grundy grabbed a new piece of wood that would be the front of my Jeep, this piece of wood was sanded smooth an was curved but still a square shape.

Step 8- He then glued the piece of wood to the joint and secured it with rubber bands.

Step 9- We now cut a little thin piece of wood that would go on the top and glued it on.

Step 10- I now had to draw a seat, that was similar to stairs twice. I was very confused while doing this. Even though I had my drawing by reference I was still puzzled.

Step 10- Mr. Grundy came and was confused as what I was trying to do, but said he could still work with it.                                     
So he cut and glued it on with super glue. Then later secured it with rubber bands.
