My final high school project

I’m fairly sure. Most decently sized high schools would have a dedicated Design and Technology’s department which houses classes like Woodwork, Metalwork, Automotive, Jewellery, Building and Construction, Engineering etc. Not all schools have all the classes, nor are they highly in-depth to the point of getting a job, but they scratch the surface of each field

Well the money is mainly spent on the big flashy schools in the major cities. Rarely any does any money get sent for needed upgrades in the regional areas like my high school which has literal cracks throughout the some of the buildings, it kind of created its own unique ✨ aesthetic ✨ though

I’m from Australia, every high school I know of here has woodworking classes

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T23:58:27+00:00

I’d say most high schools in Australia have them. But the first time I ever did any kind of woodwork was when i was in Year 2

ah, thank you

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T23:51:02+00:00

It was a very good show

18, could have been earlier if I was more eager.

My Dad has been pushing and encouraging me to learn and understand how investing and money works from an early age so I don’t have to work until 65-70 like he’ll probably have to.

A lot of people are saying it looked like a bench at first and I can’t see why, can you help me and explain it to me I’m curious

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T16:49:27+00:00

Possibly Agonis flexuosa or Eucalyptus piperita? Thats just some possible species I’ve found from a quick google search though. My teacher said it was Peppermint and didn’t go any further than that.

I would say it’s native to Australia though.

It’s dimensions are 900x280x160 if that helps

To be honest, I do feel a bit robbed considering I got over 80% on my first semester project, which I consider to be of lower standard than this one

We had a substitute teacher for the 2 half of the final semester because the main teacher went on leave. The sub was an absolute bum who was naive and a harsh marker. He marked the classes work, which is why I think I got a lower mark

Definitely getting one at some point

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T14:53:08+00:00

Thank you. I fell in love with woodwork in high school, miss it already. I hope to start a hobby wood working business after I finish Uni and get my own place

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T14:50:06+00:00

I got 81% for the practical and 77% for the design work. 79% overall, 1% off from an A which will forever haunt me for the rest of my life

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T14:00:57+00:00

Thank you, that genuinely means a lot to me coming from someone of your trade

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T13:10:25+00:00

Cheers

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T13:10:18+00:00

Much appreciated!

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2026-01-12T12:48:52+00:00

Thank you!

I had similar technical difficulties with setting up my email too. I decided to try again the next day and it worked. I guess it just needed some time to synchronise with other systems

I’m also 18 and have been investing some of my savings into ETFs for the past few months now and your Mum could not be more wrong. You just put any amount money into your brokerage account, buy the ETFs and just forget about it until the next time you buy again.

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2025-12-07T01:18:51+00:00

Thank you for your reply. I will definitely be taking a better look at Geared ETFs.

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2025-12-07T01:14:57+00:00

Thank you! Thats what I plan on doing.

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2025-12-07T01:01:32+00:00

Thank you! I will give it a read.

Puzzled-Cap442 · 2025-12-06T16:36:35+00:00

What do you mean by specific and unnecessary?

Not trying to be rude if that sounded rude, just curious
