Trimming
the
photoframe
Today,
as
same
as
every
workshop,
I
put
on
the
apron
to
keep
my
body
clean
from
dust
and
wore
hard
shoes
to
protect
my
feet
from
sharp
tools.
I
then
started
to
trim
both
of
the
outside
and
the
inside
of
the
photoframe.
At
first,
I
used
a
flat
head
file
to
trim
the
inner
part
of
the
photoframe
(See
figure
1).
As
I
cut
it
using
a
coping
saw,
the
surface
was
very
rough.
I
should
remove
those
sharp
edges
then
began
working
with
a
pedestal
drill
because
this
was
more
effective
in
trimming.
Next,
I
used
a
disk
sander
to
trim
the
outside
of
the
phoroframe.
I
should
above
the
dangerous
zone
where
X
was
marked
(See
figure
2).
It
was
difficult
to
trim
because
the
photoframe
was
curved.
Figure
1:
The
inside
of
the
photoframe
had
bumpy
surface
as
I
used
a
coping
saw
to
cut.
In
the
photograph,
I
was
trimming
there
with
a
flat
head
file.
Figure
2:
The
outside
of
the
photoframe
was
rough
as
I
cut
it
with
a
coping
saw.
In
the
image,
I
was
trimming
there
with
a
disk
sander.

Cutting
the
photoframe
Secondly,
after
four
holes
were
drilled
on
the
wood,
I
stick
the
wood
to
the
bench
vice
at
the
right
angle
that
I
could
easily
cut
the
curved
part
using
a
coping
saw.
I
then
started
to
cut
the
inner
section
with
a
coping
saw
(See
figure
2).
The
coping
saw
was
often
used
to
cut
the
curved
part.
I
first
pushed
the
coping
saw
with
my
shoulder
and
took
the
blade
out.
I
put
the
blade
into
one
hole
and
cut.
Because
the
coping
saw
was
very
hard
to
control,
there
were
too
many
bumpy
spaces
on
the
wood.
Next
class,
I
had
to
file
and
make
the
surface
smooth.

I
put
the
blade
of
the
coping
saw
into
the
holes.
In
the
photograph,
I
was
cutting
the
inner
part
of
the
photoframe
with
a
coping
saw.

Learner
Profile
Today
I
was
principled
during
the
workshop.
As
I
had
completed
making
one
photoframe,
I
knew
what
I
should
do
to
create
another
photoframe.
I
didn’t
waste
my
time
to
wait
the
teacher’s
help,
and
therefore,
I
could
complete
the
work
faster.
In
addition,
I
was
a
communicator.
I
was
able
to
ask
for
teacher’s
help
when
I
had
a
difficulty
with
taking
the
blade
out
and
putting
it
inside
of
the
holes.
-­‐
Emotion
I
was
satisfied
with
today’s
process.
As
I
described
above,
I
knew
what
process
I
required
to
follow.
As
a
result,
I
had
done
most
of
the
process
of
creating
another
photoframe.
Next
class,
I
could
complete
creating
all
three
photoframes.
This
made
me
move
on
to
making
the
backboard
and
therefore,
I
thought
that
today’s
work
was
successful.
