Tablet/Textbook Holders
As an introductory project in Woodwork 9/10, students choose a laminated project. The students featured here designed and created tablet/textbook/cookbook holders, and used nearly every machine in the shop to complete them. Excellent work, folks!
Laminated Projects
A selection of beautiful cutting boards/serving platters made by Woodworking students this year – J.M. did our first-ever diagonal design! Students select their wood species, learn how to calculate board feet to price out a project, and design their dimensions. Great work, everyone!
Phone stands
A quick intro project in our Woodworking course – students design dimensions and wood species, and try some precision cutting on the bandsaw with an angled table. Excellent work!
Cross-curricular coffee table
Grade 12 student C.B. designed this amazing table – he welded the base in our Jewelry/Metalwork class, and C.F. and W.G. in Senior Woodwork helped him out with the gorgeous cherry tabletop. Excellent work!
Junior Woodworking
A selection of projects by our Fall 2018 Junior Woodwork course! Students choose wood species and dimensions, and create an assortment of introductory projects. Featured here are cutting boards/serving platters, a tablet/recipe book holder, and a step stool. Excellent work!
Self-Directed Woodwork projects
A fantastic assortment of creative self-directed projects, many completed by J.V. in Grade 10. Great work!
Keepsake Boxes
Incredible, unique pieces done by Woodwork 9/10 students in Spring 2018. Students were given a theme, and chose their dimensions, design, detail, and wood species. Great work, everyone!
bowl project
Great work by L.M. in Spring 2018 – wow! Laminated poplar and purpleheart, and all turned, sanded, and finished by hand.
In memoriam
Our friend, mentor, Teacher-on-Call, and retired shop teacher, Graeme McFadyen, passed away in Spring 2018. Two students, L.M. and D.S. found a partially-completed bowl that Graeme had been working on, finished it, and wood-burned a memoriam by hand. This bowl will be on display in our shop to commemorate Mr. McFadyen, and all that he has done for the Comox Valley community over the past several decades. R.I.P.
