DAT ASSESSMENT 3

STATEMENT OF INTENT I, Arnav Sahay will be creating a device


dock that will be able to hold at least 1
device and accessory. The device dock will
be able to hold 1 device, 1 accessory and it
will have a unique design which will be
most likely laser printed. I will be making it
in the woodwork workshop. I believe that
this project should be finished by its due
date which is December 7th 2020. I will be
getting my information and skills from my
teacher who will be instructing me through
out the terms. My only limitations will be
that my woodwork skills are adequate at
best.
