Making the flats

To create the flats, Henry showed us how fix the main frames together and to attach the skin. We all worked out how big each flat needed to be and cut up the pieces of wood ready to be attached together. We made the main frame by drilling holes ino the ends of each pieces of wood and use a screw and drill to screw them together. We then added the centre beams that would make the frame a bit more sturdy. To add the skins on which was a thin piece of ply wood, we first added wood glue to the edges of the frame and layed the sheet on top. We then used a nail gun to secure the skin in place. Its a very simple process and we all assigned ourselves tasks to complete so we could work like clockwork.
