14. Camm1 Plotter Cutter 4 Introduce the Camm1 link to photolink to photo 4 Explain its functions 4 Illustrate how it can be used in Industry for Vinyl signs etc 4 Demonstrate its use with Techsoft 2D Design 4 Assign some pupils to create the card nets

15. Completing the Box 4 Using the Net created on the Camm1 plotter cutter 4 Cut out both the card net and the final design net carefully 4 Pritt stick the two together aligning the edges 4 Then using Hot glue form the box into its finished shape

16. Evaluation 4 Pupils now evaluate the effectiveness of their design using the help sheet and add comments from others to support their views 4 Pupils will then present the evaluation on the computer possibly adding their design to the sheet 4 Link to example Link to example 4 Link to help sheet Link to help sheet
