An update to the Measuring, Scale and Estimation booklet that was much needed. Changed the colour palette too, because the print looked very 'muddy' when printed in monochrome. This version is a lot better. 

Thank you for all the kind emails/Whatsapps about the site. Hope you all have a great start to term.

Happy Summer holidays everyone! (In Scottish education anyway).

I've been plodding away on the woodwork course and have finished the 'Field Notes' for machine tools. There are probably lots of typos, so if you spot any please let me know.

Like the previous units there are a series of projects and drawings to go along with it. I've not uploaded these yet - largely because we are in the process of moving house again. We are still still staying in the same village, but moving to a house that better suits our needs. Always something happening. 

Hope you are all well,

Hi everyone! 

I'm sorry for the lack of updates and new work. I have been working on stuff, but nothing is fully finished or ready for upload. 

As many of you know, my family and I started a big adventure by moving into the countryside and out of the centre-belt of Scotland. We are absolutely loving it here and have made many new friends. Our new school is excellent too (we both work in the same school again!) - we have been really lucky and worked in excellent schools during our careers.

So, I have a few wee projects coming together. This is a new mini-project for Graphic Communication - a nice wee entry primer for those starting their graphics journey. I'll be making a supporting video this week too.  Click here to go straight to it.

I am considering selling my rocket-launcher design. Is that something people would be interested in?

Anyway, thank you for all the support and encouragement. Hope you are all doing well.

October 2022 Update Log

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the long delay in putting in a wee update.
Bryony and I have finally moved - it was a lot more stressful than we imagined, but we are so glad to have made the move. We miss the old school where we both worked - the children, staff and management were really amazing - but we have moved to an equally great place. It is a lot smaller, but just as ambitious and really does an amazing job. 

As many of you know, I now work in a faculty that delivers Computing Science, Business Management, Administration and Accounting! We sort of got together and made a new wee BGE course covering D&T, CompSci and Buisness in one wee project. More updates are needed for it, but they should be coming up over the next week or so. 

I've also made another wee N5 Graphics CAD mini-exam/assessment thing. These should become more frequent too. 

Hope you are all well! :)
