A photograph of original evidence of making presentation board. Full size paper templates were drawn and used to mark out MDF, parts were then cut using a jigsaw and bandsaw. A template was cut for the arm and back rests and a router table with a bearing cutter was used to ensure all pieces were the same. All pieces were then hand finished to fit before assembly.
