The third in a sequence of courses that prepares individuals to apply technical knowledge and skills to lay-out, shape, assemble, and finish projects. Value is placed on developing craftsmanship, a production sense, and in design principles. This course emphasizes the development of widely understood and accepted design principles.

Standard 5 Demonstrate the use of basic joinery techniques. For example:
Spline
Mortise & Tenon
Lap
Blind dado
Standard 6 Demonstrate sanding and finishing techniques.
Understand and properly apply the basic rules of sanding.
Select and correctly use each specified grit size.
Properly prepare a surface for finishing.
Properly apply stain, penetrating oil, and/or a clear finish.
Properly apply a clear coat.
STRAND 4 Students will follow a disciplined design process to develop a project.
Woodworking Advanced Core
Standard 1 Understand the design, planning, and estimation process.
Identify standard furniture dimensions relating to tables, seating, and shelving.
Draw/sketch the necessary views of a selected project.
Create a material list for the selected project and determine the project cost.
Standard 2 Create a mock-up of the project.
Simplify the design where possible.
Create a step-by-step plan for creating each element of the designed product.
Standard 3 Complete a finished product that showcases the woodworking and design skills developed by the student.
STRAND 5 Students will be able to perform automated manufacturing processes using CNC equipment to produce an assembly.
Woodworking Advanced Core
Standard 1 Know and understand basic terms related to CNC machines. For example:
Datum, Absolute Coordinates, and Relative Coordinates
Depth of Cut (DoC), Speed, and Feed
Tool Path, Cutter Radius, Conventional Milling, and Climb Milling
Standard 2 Configure a CNC machine and program it to cut out or shape the components of an assembly.
STRAND 6 Students will investigate future training opportunities and careers in woodworking.
Woodworking Advanced Core
Standard 1 Investigate different types of occupational training. For example:
Trade school
Community College
University
Standard 2 Recognize the importance of both "hard" and "soft" skills in the workplace.
Performance Skills
Complete a woodworking project that demonstrates the use of woodworking tools, machinery, basic joinery, adhesive, and finishing techniques.
Use a CNC machine to apply a simple design to a wood surface.
Demonstrate practice of the Technology & Engineering Professional Workplace Skills. https://schools.utah.gov/file/fd0c16aa-8bee-4d07-85b5-88e0c913790e
Participate in a significant activity that provides each student with an opportunity to render service to others, employ leadership skills, or demonstrate skills they have learned through this course, preferably through participation in a Career & Technical Student Organization (CTSO) such as SkillsUSA.
