Technology Wood

On Wednesday 24th of July my group and I  went to tech.

I have chosen to make a jewellery box for myself .
I think this is the best choice for me because my sister sometimes plays with my things and usually ends up breaking it.
It will be used to hide my jewellery in it and it will be used at home.
For this project I will have to consider how to get my measurements as accurate as possible.
