It is time to starts making our “Labyrinth” model. First, I start to make the frame. Our lecturer suggested us to make mitre joint for the frame. So, after marking out the 45 degrees on the edges of the timber, I used the sanding machine to sand off the unwanted parts and started to joint after sanding. I used PVA glue for the joining and left it to set for 15 mins to 30mins. I try to get clamps from our technician but there are only small G- clamp available, so I just left the joint to set without clamping it. The joint are not strong, so I consulted our tutor. He told me to used contact glue instead of PVA. Therefore, I decided to get contact glue first and complete the frame at home.
Soon, the time is up and our technician told us to pack up as the workshop is closing soon. After clearing up the workshop, we went back to the studio.
