This material pack includes the Hepp DT design portfolio that covers the design, make, evaluate and technical knowledge aspects of the project. Children can also use a variety of embellishments to ‘finish’ their item appropriately (please note, we do not provide embellishments and paint).
To be able to cut the dowel and jelutong to the correct length, you will need junior hacksaws, bench hooks and g-clamps as well as a cordless drill and a 6mm drill piece. If you do not have these tools in school, please select the ‘components pre-cut’ option at checkout.
Each material pack comes with sandpaper and PVA wood adhesive as standard.
