Course Description

This course encourages students to combine skills from a range of studies to design and produce objects. The purpose of this course is to help students to transfer their ideas into 3 dimensional visualization and to produce a prototype model with the uses of different techniques like wood technology, plastic technology, metal technology, glass technology, ceramic technology etc. Students work with a variety of tools to design, create and finish presentation models. By working with simple hand tools, metal shop machinery and painting equipment, students are expected to become familiar with the techniques commonly employed in accurate scale model making, assembling and finishing.
