, QUESTION 1
The design process step 3 is referred to as the make stage. It is important to plan for this stage.
Planning includes those activities which are involved when working out, in advance, how a product,
process or system is to be produced or realised before actually doing it. Make notes regarding the

Structural Materials: These could include wood, metal, or plastic depending on the product being made.
Finishing Materials: This may include paint, varnish, or other coatings to enhance the aesthetics and
durability of the product.
b. What should the quality of the different materials be? (2)
1. **Durability**: Materials should be resistant to wear, corrosion, or degradation, suitable for the
product's intended use.
2. **Consistency**: Materials should have consistent quality to ensure uniformity in the final product,
e.g., no knots in wood or impurities in metals.
c. What are the sizes of the available raw materials? (3)
1. **Wood**: Typically available in sheets of 4x8 feet or in standard lumber sizes (2x4, 2x6).

3. **Plastic Sheets**: Often come in sizes of 4x8 feet or as small pre-cut pieces for specific applications.
d. Will the different materials have to be cut to size? (5)
1. **Wood**: Yes, wood often requires cutting to fit dimensions specified in the design.
2. **Metal**: Most likely will need to be cut for structural elements and fittings.
3. **Plastic**: May also require cutting depending on the intended application or design specifications.
e. Will the different materials have to be shaped? (5)
1. **Wood**: Yes, shaping may be needed for joints, curves, or specific designs.
2. **Metal**: Often requires shaping for components like brackets or decorative elements, using
processes such as bending or welding.
3. **Plastic**: Shaping might involve bending, molding, or cutting to achieve desired forms.
