Slot



this is my design idea and it is a table made out of cardboard and it has to fit the ergonome i had to use a craft knife and and a ruler and a cutting mat and with all of that equipment i had to make a piece of furniture and i made a table as i have shown in the picture.we had to make it so it would fit the ergonome and if it didn't fit we would have to do it again until it would fit the ergomone.

Slot Chair

this is the type of furniture that we are going to make and it i going to be made out of cardboard.It is going to be slot together furniture and the cardboard is going to slot in to holes so it stayes together and it will be easy to build and it will be easy so take apart because it is going to slot in.The chair will have to fit a small person and we will have to look at mesurments and we will have to divide it by 5 so it will fit the small person the chair will have to have slot in it so the cardboard can fit in.
Thsi is a picture of a piece of slot together furniture and I am going to do something like this.

Cross Dowel Joint

you hace to drill a hole to put the screw in.

then you have to drill another hole so you can put the scrwe in.

then when you have put the the cross dowel joint in then uou have to check if it fits.

you have to put a 5mm line from the top so you can drill a hole in for the croos dowel joint.
 




when you have drilled the the hole you have to put the screw in to check if it fits put this time when we did it it didnt fit so we had to drill a bigger hole so it fits.
the cross dowel joint worked becasue we used the right mesurments.

we had to screw the screw in the bottom then we had to scure it with an key so it didnt come out we had top do this becasue the screw didnt come out.

the cross dowel joint has finished.

This is a picture of the bottom of the mdf so you can see the joint from a bottom perspective.

Brief

I will need to consider the colours that I use.  For example i shall use the colours yellow, red, blue, black and white. Theese are the colours of De Stijl. The colours yellow, red and blue are also the three primary colours of the colour wheel. These colours make the furniture very bright.

lap and housing joint

Test if it fits in the hole.





You have finished the housing and the lap joint.
