Dog House

I made a wooden dog house because I needed extra credit for my engineering class and I also made it for a project in my agriculture class.

The supplies I used were wood, paint, glue, screws, drills, saws, sealant, an air vent, measuring tapes, and a T-square measuring tool.

1. I drew out the plans for getting the materials.

2. I drew out the estimated measurements for the house.

3. I went to Lowes to get all of the materials.

4. I measured the walls of the house first with a measuring tape.

5. I then drew the measurement lines with a t-square.

6. I measured the roof pieces.

7. I cut out the wall pieces.

8. I cut out the entrance in the front wall piece.

9. I drilled the walls and cut the walls.

10. I cut out the feet pieces to hold the house off the ground.

11. I marked where to cut the bracing pieces.

12. I cut out the wall bracing pieces.

13. I marked out the air vent placement on the back wall.

14. I cut out an area where the air vent was going to go.

15. I then screwed in the air vent where I cut it.

16. I then started screwing the wall pieces together.

17. I started screwing the roof pieces together.

18. I then started putting sealant around the house's edges and the small openings in the wood.

19. I sprayed primer to make the roof white.

20. I then painted the rest of the house with grey paint.
