During the second lesson of the wood workshop we had to invent a car from a block of wood, choosing colour and shape. We had at our disposals all the machines of the workshop.
My car is a so-called Ape, with four wheels and a carretto that is supposed to be a jewerly container, with a stick in its middle for the rings. I started drawing and cutting the main shape, the I added and glued the side parts of the carretto. To make the sides of the front part inclined and curved I used two tipe of sanding machines: the rounded and the linear one.
