How to Make

Watch a Flash movie of how to make the parts in this project. It is important to remember that the steps shown are a suggestion and not the only way of manufacturing a piece. You will develop your own methods as your learning progresses.

You should also study the drawing of the part you are interested in and work out as much of the process as possible yourself, before looking at these movies.

The movies run quite quick, (to reduce file size), but you can pause them at any stage or replay them at the end.
