Design Proposal

 * You are going to design and manufacture a product made from a timber pallet.
 * The product can be of your own choice but you must identify where there is a need for this product.
 * There is a time and size limit so you must consider a product that can be manufactured within 10 weeks and that is limited to a suitable size to allow for storage in the workshop. This can be discussed in more detail later this week.
 * Begin to investigate a range of ideas for something you have an interest in and a need for.
 * Pinterest (now unblocked) has a great range of ideas that might inspire you. You will need to create an account and either download the app or log on using a computer.

Find 8-10 images of products that have been made using a pallet. Paste these images into a document and annotate the following: (See separate worksheets given out in class) || ** /10 ** || Sketch 5-6 designs for a product you could make using recycled wooden pallets.
