This booklet is based on design a hacksaw, we have created the same booklet for a bottle opener so the students can have a trial run to learn the skills but this might prove to be very time consuming.

I’ve provided it as a powerpoint and pdf. (I’m planning to get students to use google classroom and slides.)

Happy September! More resources for Unit 1 and 2 coming soon. Look out for bundles and new spec Level 3 resources in my shop.
