 What I Need to Know

Good day! How are you? Are you now ready for a new learning adventure? This
module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you master
Applying Freehand Sketching. The scope of this module permits it to be used in many
different learning situations. The language used recognizes the diverse vocabulary
level of students. The lessons are arranged to follow the standard sequence of the
course. But the order in which you read them can be changed to correspond with
the textbook you are now using.

After going through this module, you are expected to perform freehand
sketching exercises and draw simple carpentry play based on a given task.
(TLE_IACP7/8 ID-0g-h-3).

What I Know

Welcome! You are now in one of the most exciting lessons in your journey as a
carpenter. Your imagination and sketching skills will be tested in this module since
you will be performing sketching exercises and reading work plans. Isn’t it exciting?
In carpentry, you cannot just directly build without a solid picture of what you
want to do. Sketching and drawing work plans is an important part of the design and
development process since this allows you to develop concepts, convey your ideas,
and improve on them. But before we explore more on this topic, let’s determine how
much you already know about applying freehand sketching.

Pretest
Directions: Take a look at the isometric drawing below. Do the orthographic drawing
in your test notebook, that is, the front view, right-side view, and the top view of the
object presented.

How was it? Were you able to picture out the front view, right-side view, and
the top view of the object correctly? Great! Now let’s begin!

 Lesson
Applying Freehand
9 Sketching

Welcome to Module 9! This module will provide you knowledge on how to

perform freehand sketching and draw simple carpentry plans based on a given task.
Enjoy learning!

What’s In

In the previous lesson, you learned interpreting technical drawings and plans
which is reading and interpreting a working plan. Let’s have a quick review of what
you’ve learned.

Activity 1 – Fill in the Box!

Directions: Identify the concept on reading and interpreting work plans by

completing the boxes. Use the definition as your guide. Write your answer on your
test booklet. Are you ready? You may start now.

1. A view of a working plan showing the upper portion

2. A view of a working plan showing the front portion of project

3. A view that shows the depth and the height of the figure

4. A specified joint in assembling center table

and

2
5. A 4 pieces parts of center table that serves as post

6. The 4 parts of center table that serves as horizontal frame and sometimes
it is divided into two length (long and short)

7. A slot cut into the surface of a piece of wood.

8. Parts of the bookrack which are installed at the center and bottom
horizontally

9. Two pieces parts of a bookrack that are fixed vertically at the side.

10. Formed by two boards, timbers, or sheets of wood that are held together
by nails, fasteners, pegs, or glue

11. A union between two pieces, each cut at an angle

12. A rack for holding books which is an example of a carpentry work

3
 13. The activity or occupation of making or repairing things made of wood

14. Another example of a carpentry work consist of top, legs, and rails.

15. An important tool consists of drawings necessary for the carpenter to do

a given task

How was it? Did you get all the correct answers? If you got most of the answers
correctly then you are ready for this module. Remember that the three main views in
an isometric drawing are the top view, front view, and right-side view. You will learn
more about these three views in this module.

Let’s start!

Notes to the Teacher

Remind the learners to prepare their sketching and drawing

materials such as pencil, paper, eraser, ruler, a clean sheet of paper,
and their test notebook.

 What’s New

Now that you know how to read and interpret a working plan, let us proceed
to free hand sketching and drawing simple work plans and figures. Your knowledge
on the previous lesson will help you work successfully in this lesson.
Imagine yourself needing a study table for your online class. You will have to
ask your mother for money to buy it. However, if you have a limited budget, you can
create and design your own if you only have the basic knowledge on technical
drawing specifically in freehand sketching and drawing work plans such as what you
will learn from this module.
As mentioned, sketching will allow you to present a picture of your target
output. It will let you explore and develop design features of whatever it is you are
building. In carpentry, sketching will save time in the work process since it will serve
as a guide for the carpenter in carrying out the given task.
In this module, you will learn how to sketch both isometric and orthographic
drawing.
First, let us learn about sketching an isometric box which is one of the basic
skills in freehand sketching.
Isometric drawing is a method of presenting drawings or designs in 3D or
three dimensions. For the design to appear three dimensional, a 30-degree angle is
applied to its sides.

Here is the step-by-step procedure in sketching isometric box.

Steps in Sketching an Isometric Box

1. Draw a vertical axis or simply a vertical line.

5
 2. Draw right and left axis, a straight, inclined line emanating from the
vertical axis you have previously drawn in Step 1. Usually it is about 30˚
from the horizontal to make it appear 3D.

3. Determine the length and width of the box. Mark a point in the right and
left axis depending on the dimension, and draw a vertical line depending on
its length and width.

4. Measure the height of these vertical lines and mark the desired height of your
sketch.

6
 5. Project a line parallel to the left and right axis to form a box.

6. Label the box to determine the top, front and the right-side view. Erase
unnecessary lines out of the box.

right-side view

You may review the procedure again and again so that you will be well-versed
of the steps in isometric drawing.

 What Is It

Orthographic Drawing represents a three-dimensional object using several

two-dimensional views of the object. It consists of three different views: the top view,
the front view, and the right-side view. Simply said, it is a clear, detailed way to
represent the image of an object in different angles.

Steps in Sketching Orthographic Drawing

1. Study the object to be drawn.

2. Do the isometric drawing by lay outing the front view, top view and the
right-side view.

8
3. Finalize the figure to complete the drawing.

right-side view

What’s More

Activity 2 – Imagine!
Directions: In your test notebook, do the following:

1. Sketch an isometric box.

9
2. Do the orthographic drawing of the given isometric figure showing its three (3)
main views.

3. With the given orthographic drawing, draw its isometric drawing.

What I Have Learned

1. Sketching is an important part of the design and development

process for it helps develop concepts, convey ideas, and improve a
certain output.

2. It can be done using a pen and paper, eraser, ruler, and other
drawing materials.

3. Isometric drawing is a method of presenting drawings or designs in

3D or three dimensions applying a 30-degree angle to its sides for
the design to appear three dimensional.

4. The steps in isometric drawing are the following:

• Draw a vertical line.
• Draw right and left axis about 30˚ from the horizontal to make
it appear 3D.
• Determine the length and width of the box. Mark a point in
the right and left axis depending on the dimension, and draw
a vertical line depending on its length and width.

11
 • Measure the height of these vertical lines and mark the
desired height of your sketch.
• Project a line parallel to the left and right axis to form a box.
• Label the box to determine the top, front and the right-side
view. Erase unnecessary lines out of the box.

5. Orthographic Drawing represents a three-dimensional object using

several two-dimensional views of the object which is a clear, detailed
way to represent the image of an object. It consists of three different
views: the top view, the front view, and the right-side view.

6. The steps in orthographic drawing includes the following:

• Study the object to be drawn.
• Do the isometric drawing by lay outing the front view, top
view and the right-side view.
• Finalize the object figure to complete the drawing.

What I Can Do

Now that you have the knowledge of performing freehand sketching and drawing
simple carpentry plans, do the following activity:

In your test booklet, draw a side table using the following measurements and then
draw the isometric view. Believe in yourself and say “I can do this!”

▪ 60 cm long
▪ 600 mm wide
▪ 800 mm high
